Tell you what. You post the contents of your /proc/bus/usb/devices (with the device plugged in) and indicate which device you want to mount. Include also the contents /proc/scsi/scsi, /proc/scsi/usb-storage*/*, and ls -lR of your /sys (or wherever you have a sysfs filesystem mounted). I'll look at it and show you how to find out the proper device name for mounting. Alan Stern ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by OSTG.
