Hi,
After years of running non GUI Debian servers on older laptops which had
no operable CD Drives let alone any USB interfaces I have now upgraded
on to the luxury of a modern retired laptop which has USB ports, and I
would like to be able to connect either flash or external hard drives
through the USB ports. However a search of Google and the forums has
left me unable to determine the commands I need to find:
a: has the systen recognised the device I have plugged in, or what
command I need to issue to force the system to go and look for new usb
devices;
b: what does the system call the new device; and
c: how to mount the device, I think I can probably work that out given
the first 2 but must admit I am rusty with use of yhe mount command.
Cheers,
Trevor
