Thanks. This helped me.
Short and sweet. Actually more information than I needed, but I found the parts that I needed easily.

Later distros automatically mount USB devices, but don’t seem to list the ‘sda/sdb’ they have assigned in dmesg, or anywhere else I can find. What command will show both the name of the device (like Kingston USB) and the automounted path (like /dev/sdb1)?

Any help appreciated :)

I am new in Linux.

I would like to use USB in Linux. But I got a problem.

After typing “cp -v /home/rd1/*.c /mnt/pen”, I got an error message like,

cp: cannot stat ‘/home/rd1/*.c : No such file or directory.

Please help me.

Thank you for technical help.

Is it possible to have USB Flash Memory HOW To document in .pdf or .doc formats to be saved or download. I’m learnig Linux OS and my Linux Kernel is 2.6 (Mandrakelinux 10.1). Is there any GUI way of using USB pen on this version of OS?

Many Thanks in advance

Hi, i’m a new learner of Linux. I installed a RedHat 9 Professional Edition in my workstation. When I plug in usb thumb drive to the usb port of PC, it wouldn’t detect. Is it RedHat 9 not support for the usb flash? If yes, how could I upgrade my PC to detect the usb flash? TQ.

You my good man, need to change your charachter encoding to UTF-8. there was quite a few symbols (all hyphens for example) that were messed up because the encoding was set to ISO-8859-1 by default… the meta tag is your friend :P

Peter,

Red hat 7.2 is too old. Get latest distro and you should able to use usb pen or drive. Old version has some issues. I recommend getting Fedora Core or Ubuntu Linux
