Hallo,
I have built an LFS 7.10 system (without systemd) and I'm quite happy
with it so far, everything works great. Now I wanted to transfer some
files so I connected a memory stick but there's no device to mount.
I'm unsure about whether I should expect an USB stick to work with base
LFS or not.
When I connect the memory stick the kernel messages report the USB
device and recognize manufacturer etc., but I don't see a corresponding
node created in /dev.
My kernel is compiled with USB support and DOS/FAT/NTFS filesystems as
modules.
Admittedly I'm not entirely sure how udev is supposed to work. The rules
syntax suggest that the kernel already provides something like "sdb" and
the udev rules can work with that. I've grabbed a similar-looking rule
from an Ubuntu wiki but it did not work as I hoped.
Can someone please give me some hints and pointers what I should do next?
Is this a debugging-something problem or an installing-something problem?
Thanks ;)
Tschau...Thomas
Hi Thomas,
You need to add support for USB Storage Devices in the Kernel:
Device Drivers ->
USB Support ->
<*> USB Mass Storage support
Be sure the prerequisit SCSI disk support is enabled aswell:
Device Drivers ->
SCSI device support ->
<*> SCSI disk support
Best regards
Michael
