Hi group, I posted earlier on this subject but scored no hits. I've been poking around on the Web for answers but so far without luck.
When I plug the player into port and $dmesg, this comes up: <snip> usb 1-2: new full speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address 2 usb 1-2: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice Initializing USB Mass Storage driver... scsi0 : SCSI emulation for USB Mass Storage devices usb-storage: device found at 2 usb-storage: waiting for device to settle before scanning usbcore: registered new interface driver usb-storage USB Mass Storage support registered. scsi 0:0:0:0: Direct-Access USB FLASH DISK V2.0 2120 PQ: 0 ANSI: 2 usb-storage: device scan complete usbcore: registered new interface driver usbhid drivers/usb/input/hid-core.c: v2.6:USB HID core driver usb 1-2: USB disconnect, address 2 usb 1-2: new full speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address 3 usb 1-2: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice scsi1 : SCSI emulation for USB Mass Storage devices usb-storage: device found at 3 usb-storage: waiting for device to settle before scanning scsi 1:0:0:0: Direct-Access USB FLASH DISK V2.0 2120 PQ: 0 ANSI: 2 usb-storage: device scan complete Why won't it assign a drive, like /dev/sda? It does on another machine with virtually the same setup. Nothing shows up in udevinfo, cat /proc/partitions. but, #lsusb Bus 001 Device 003: ID 04e8:9826 Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd and $cat /proc/bus/usb/devices <snip> S: Manufacturer=NewTech Inc S: Product=USB Mass Storage Device 2.0 <snip> I tried making the node manually(assuming /dev/sda) #mknod /dev/sda b 8 0 but attempts to mount the device return "/dev/sda is not a valid block device" What am I missing?
