Farschad remember, USB storage drives use SCSI modulation, just like 1394/iLink (firewire) devices. So when you're adding them and looking for them, you want to look for SCSI devices.
Modules that may be required depending upon your system include; usbdevfs sd_mod I would boot the system, add the modules via 'modprobe -d usbdevfs' and ' modprobe -d sd_mod', then run 'tail -f /var/log/messages' and attach the USB devices. You should see in the message log the hardware information. Alternatively 'dmesg' is your friend as well. Last, but not least, /proc will help you; /proc/scsi/ /proc/bus/ lt --- Farschad Torabi <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Dear Leo and Stephane > Thanks, SDA1 works properly! > > Farschad > > > At 08:53 PM 7/11/2003 +1000, you wrote: > >#mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/usbhd > > > >The sda1 is normally where your USB HD is.
