Should these instructions work with a USB compact flash card reader? -----Original Message----- From: Julien Tane [mailto:jtane@xxxxxx] Sent: Tuesday, February 10, 2004 1:35 PM To: fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx Subject: Re: USB Storage device/MP3 Player/Voice recorder Hello, This works quite well. However, I have had a some little problem with mine. Now it works fine. Or at least the last time I tried that is .... Now a second ago. I could mount it again... Of course the following information might depend on the usb stick. But I suppose that it should work for most usb sticks. well for mounting it you only need to mount it: add at the end of fstab: /dev/sda1 /mnt/usbstick auto noauto,user 0 0 or mount it as vfat. In mine, you then only need to copy the files in the right directory. in my case: I have directories: ( this might be really different depending on manufacturers... I guess): voice and music plus some property file ".dat". Hope this helps... Julien P.S: It was at the beginning a bit of the pain in the ass. Becasue the partition tables of the usb sticks were not really compatible with the partitions. So I had some problem with it. J.L.
