On the hosts on which pmount-hal works I get: gq:~# lshal | grep -B1 /dev/sda gq:~#
r...@big:~# lshal | grep -B1 /dev/sda r...@big:~# but on the other two I get: cmn:~# lshal | grep -B1 /dev/sda -bash: lshal: command not found cmn:~# cmpq:~# lshal | grep -B1 /dev/sda -bash: lshal: command not found cmpq:~# Package hal was not installed on the two failing hosts. I have installed it and now pmount-hal works on all four hosts. I think the depends list for pmount needs some tweeking, perhaps. Now, on host cmn, I get: cmn:~# lshal | grep -B1 /dev/sda udi = '/org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/storage_serial_WD_My_Passport_070A_57584E304139394333383730_0_0' block.device = '/dev/sda' (string) -- udi = '/org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/volume_uuid_3fc4e658_6eec_4b56_9db9_834f1241b9da' block.device = '/dev/sda1' (string) -- udi = '/org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/volume_uuid_14a22180_8efa_408f_8a0f_afddb46d2fef' block.device = '/dev/sda2' (string) cmn:~# The reason I got nothing from lshal on the hosts were hal was already installed is. I think, that I just ran the command you suggested, but without plugging in the USB drive. I think I have a much better idea of what is going on re. USB now.
