Ah yes, then your USB memory key has most likely been configured by kudzu, and you should be able to see this in your /etc/fstab file. This is also a good option, however I wanted a solution that would allow me to mount and umount the USB key as needed. I like to keep devices (e.g. internal HDs, CD drives etc.) that are permanently attached (well, in comparison) in the /etc/fstab file, and removable devices configured using autofs. > nice article you > might want to and in a few more cmds for users out there that are new > linux(just a suggestion). Thanks, I appreciate the compliment. I will update the article as needed. Detailing additional commands (how to use vi, for example) is a good idea.
