Hello all,

I know that a lot of this is covered in the online documentation, I just
wanted a sanity check before going out a buying a USB storage device and
make sure I'm not going to experience conflicts with my USB modem...

>From my understanding, if I've got USB FileSystem support in my kernel
(already there for my Alcatel SpeedTouch) and got SCSI support (as module).
All I need to do is:
* buy a USB storage device (I'm looking at Maxtor)
* plug it in
* edit /etc/fstab
* mount it

Pasted below is the result of mount:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] linux]# mount
/dev/hda1 on / type ext3 (rw)
none on /proc type proc (rw)
none on /dev/pts type devpts (rw,gid=5,mode=620)
/dev/hda2 on /home type ext3 (rw)
none on /dev/shm type tmpfs (rw)
none on /proc/sys/fs/binfmt_misc type binfmt_misc (rw)
none on /proc/bus/usb type usbdevfs (rw)

Would I anticipate any conflicts regarding the usage of usbdevfs - or is
that totally irrelavant regarding mounting the disk?

Cheers
Michael
