Hi All,

I'm new to this mailing list and to the USB under linux. I'm trying to get some 
help/advice on using the USB Host controller to update local NOR Flash from a 
USB Flash drive. 

I'm using 2.6.18 Kernel it recognizes the flash drive. I currently do not have 
a /dev/sda (1,2... etc) device(s) and I'm assuming I'll have to create that 
node before I can use the device (mounting it first).



If I had the /dev/sda1 device, would this be mounted automatically? or do I 
have to do it manually?

If I were to create a script to mount this, what events should be provided for 
me to know when a usb mass storage device have been detected?



I've read the hotplus website but I'm not sure if all of this is part of the 
kernel, seperate application from the kernel, or this was before the auto 
detect feature was added to the kernel. Which is it? and how do I use it?

I'll appreciate any help anyone can provide, or perhaps an example script 
showing how this is done.



Much thanks,

--ER
