Talking mounting usb flashdisk

I dont know what's really the problem is. do you try to use this command....

mount 'device' 'mountpount'
ex: "mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/usb1"
where 'sd' stand for scsi device, 'a' the number of sddevice to mount and '1' stand for the partition number you want to mount. and the '/mnt/usb1' is the directory you want to mount the partition of the flash disk...you can create it anywhere but it is safe if you place it to mnt..

you cannot mount device if you use ordinary user. you must be login as root but
some distros allow mounting device even if you use ordinary user if it was given the priviledge. i also use ubuntu 6 and this distros can gave priviledge to ordinary user to do some root tricks but some distros won't.

if this is really you want to know then it will help you a lot..

base from the demsg you can find out what device number you flashdisk is...

sda1

hi thanks for reply...
the problem is I sda1 is not valid device... so maybe the real problem is what device name? or how to mount to device? maybe any command to mount to scsi?

Talking mounting flashdisk rh9

as I said 'sda1'
sd = scsi device and usb storage was also scsi device and linux considered it as scsi device
a = the number of scsi attached to the system you want to mount on and I think your device is at 2 so it is b base from your 1st post
1 = the number of partition you want to mount

so try this command "/dev/sdb1 /mnt/mountpoint" or try to dmesg to see what number your flashdisk is, if it is not work try sdc, sdd if it's not work maybe your linux does not support usb mass storage. if it's the case you have to recompile your kernel and support usb mass storage.

if it's not work please try to give your pc specs as refererence to work on this problem so that me or other can give you good advice.I've got this problem on my redhat 9 also but I solve it by recompiling new kernel.

Yeah, I think RH9 came out with the 2.4 kernel, and I'm not sure how much support for USB was built into it. It'll probaby take a newer kernel as suggested by svquintela above to fix this problem.

Otherwise, you could try Fedora 7 which is a free download and has the newer kernel built in.
