Not to sure if this helps. if you run lsblk it will list devices connected to the system, just plugged in a usb flash disk and it showed up as sdg 8:96 1 3.8G 0 disk ├─sdg1 8:97 1 640M 0 part /media/psutton/Rescatux0.51b3 └─sdg2 8:98 1 704K 0 part from the man page (man lsblk) NAME lsblk - list block devices Worth a try if you run lsblk | tee lsblkoutput.txt Output will be directed to the console AND the file lsblkoutput.txt.
