usb identity issue
Aloha... I am having problem getting usb plug in /flash drive to come up on FreeBSD * several boxes with different versions of FreeBSB os I have 3 boxes for testing here at my shop. Can anyone point me to any articles on this issue. Is there a command like usbconfig (saw this mentioned in an email question but it doesnt work) to bring this up on screen? Dmesg of the booted units shows da1 mostly but this identity cant be accessed on any of them.

Either a IOMEGA /zip drive or the fd0. I tried 3 different computers to test and only one works if nothing else (/dev like fd0 or /zip drive is hooked up on the mobo. One of the techs I work with thinks a lot of mobo's have the same problem when you have more than one outside /dev is attached. /Zip and /fd0 work but not /Zip if /flash is attached or plugged in. For example on the last computer I have tried one of 5 on an atm circuit: The dmesg shows only fd0 normal. The USB0 USB1 and USB2 shows 1 USB3 all connected to a hub on the mobo but only a double USB is physically useable and hooked to the board. (no way to read any ad* or da* USB). ad0 is the hd on the box. orm0 shows the IOMEGA as isa0 connected with vpI0 (parallel) da0s4. The other 2 computers I tested on are for hardware bench tests and not on any network.

Thanks for your help. You did not say what release of Freebsd you are running. Pick one pc to test on and report results from that one only. Are you saying you have all those devices plugged into individual USB ports at boot time? Are all your USB devices coded in /etc/fstab What version of USB (1, 2, 3) is your flash drive designed for? Have you tried different manufactures of flash drives?

Can anyone point me to any articles on this issue. Is there a command like usbconfig (saw this mentioned in an email question but it doesnt work) to bring this up on screen? I don't know of any articles, but here is what I do: $ uname -r 8.0-STABLE $ ls /dev | grep ^da $ (note that there is nothing found) ...and then plug in the thumb drive and do it again: $ ls /dev | grep ^da da0 da0s1 $ ...and now I can mount it. Since this drive is a FAT32 filesystem, I use mount_msdosfs. Having an entry in /etc/fstab is a convenience but not strictly necessary. Dmesg of the booted units shows da1 mostly but this identity cant be accessed on any of them. After pluggin in my thumb drive, my dmesg shows da0: SanDisk Cruzer 1.02 Removable Direct Access SCSI-2 device da0: 40.000MB/s transfers da0: 7629MB (15625216 512 byte sectors: 255H 63S/T 972C) Note that while dmesg only shows da0, my `ls /dev` also shows da0s1. You may need to use /dev/da1s1 or similar (depending on what you see from `ls /dev`) in your mount command. Try a few permutations.

I remember I returned one of their USB sticks in exchange for a Sony, because that DID WORK. :-) Have you tried different manufactures of flash drives? Have tried 2 sandisk /flash different series. For diagnostics, by the book, simple and step by step: You could first check dmesg ouput atter plugging in the USB device. It should show the steps of recognition properly: USB device --- mass storage --- direct access. Typically that's the last few lines in dmesg output. ugen4.3: Sony at usbus4 umass1: Sony Storage Media, class 0/0, rev 2.00/2.00, addr 3 on usbus4 da3 at umass-sim1 bus 1 scbus4 target 0 lun 0 da3: Sony Storage Media 1.00 Removable Direct Access SCSI-2 device da3: 40.000MB/s transfers da3: 3826MB (7835648 512 byte sectors: 255H 63S/T 487C) You can easily see those steps represented here. If all this is met, you should have /dev/da3 (in this case) in /dev. Depending on partitioning, there may be other files like /dev/da3s1. One of them is to be mounted. Try per command line first, then check if your /etc/fstab does reflect those settings, e. g. # mount -t msdosfs -o ro /dev/da3 /mnt # df -h /mnt FilesystemSizeUsed Avail Capacity Mounted on /dev/da3 3.7G3.4G352M91%/mnt # umount /mnt Please report back and provide the output of the commands you entered (just to make sure it's not blocked by permission issues or typos). :-) -- Polytropon Magdeburg, Germany Happy FreeBSD user since 4.0 Andra moi ennepe, Mousa, ... ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org
