You have to mount the device, like a disc drive. Assuming you don't have anyother scsi disc drives mount it it is probably sda1. This can be checked in /var/log/messages after you plug it in.
You will see something like this in messages file: kernel: scsi0 : SCSI emulation for USB Mass Storage devices The next step is to mount the device: I did the following mount -t vfat -o rw /dev/sda1 /mnt/usb-key (don't forget to create the directory) The only problem I have so far is allowing other users write access to the device. I have changed writes and ownership. I still can only get root to be able to write to the device. david On Mon, 17 Mar 2003, Richard Crawford wrote: > Over the weekend, my wife and I purchased a couple of those spiffy USB > disk pen things that hold 64MB on flash RAM.
