anyway your point 2 sorted out to be fine. If I mount /dev/sda instead of /dev/sda1 everything is o.k.
I suppose that all modifications of previous posts related to fstab should replace sda1 with sda.....i.e:


/dev/sda /mnt/flash auto noauto,owner,kudzu 0 0

and for autounting no problem, as sda/sda1 are not mentioned!!!!


I would still use kudzu/updfstab instead of the manual mount point.

With the manual mount point, if you put in another memory stick
it will most likely not work, or if you plug in two memory sticks it
will definitely not work.

kudzu and updfstab take care of this.
First delete your flash entry from "/etc/fstab", delete the /mnt/flash
mount point, and add the following to the end of your "/etc/updfstab.conf"


device diskonkey {
    partition 0
    match   hd diskOnKey
    match   hd "Lexar DIGITAL FILM"
    match   hd MultiMedia-Disk
}

If you previously added the flash section to "/etc/updfstab.conf",
then remove it so that it doesn't conflict.

If this works then submit a bug to bugzilla so that in the future
your memory stick will "just work" without any editing at all.
You can look at this bug in bugzilla for an example,
http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=124313



Aaron,

there is a small mistake in one of my post:

You wrote:

Probably (1) there is no partition table, (2) the partition table is wierd, or (3) the device is not working.

(1) Some usb drives come with no partition table, just one giant partition.

   Like a floppy. Try and mount /dev/sda instead of /dev/sda1.

(2) Some usb drives have added "features" like encrypted partitions.

   These are proprietary and I have never heard of them working in Linux.

   If this is the case, you can try and re-partition the drive.

   Of course you will loose everything on it.

(3) sorry.

and it sorted out to be 1 (instead of 2.....)
Tnx
