Hi, "dmesg" has this : usb 5-8: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and addr 7 usb 5-8: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice scsi6 : SCSI emulation for USB Mass storage devices Vendor: WDC WD25 Model ... Type: Direct-Access SCSI device sdj: ... 250059MB (Yes, this USB disk is 250Gb) sdj: Write protect is off sdj: sdjl Time stamp of /dev/sdj & /dev/usb5.7_ep00 _ep01 _ep82 showed these device files have just been created Tried : mount -t usbfs /dev/sdj /mnt but saw a few weird files in /mnt & not the files I'm expecting to see. "-t msdos", "-t autofs", "-t hfs" won't mount. So what should I do next as "df -k" still not showing usb partitions mounted.
