Using Gentoo Linux, kernel 2.6.10, most of kernel functionality compiled as modules.
I have usbd - the USB Daemon installed which does some magic for me. and in the /etc/fstab, I have the following entry # USB Device 1 /dev/sda1 /mnt/usb auto rw,noauto,users,sync,gid=users,umask=007 0 0 AFAIK, I have no other special USB settings. I have never connected more than one USB storage device and I do not use other USB deviced, so YMMV, but I have connected and successfully used an external USB HD and a Canon digital camera. Hope this helps, Marek Wawrzyczny On Fri, 3 Dec 2004 15:55, Bruce Badger wrote: > How can I work out the device name of a USB device? > > So, I plug in my USB device. I see the device in usbview.
