Sorry if it duplicated for anyone. << Fedora List, Okay I am getting a little frustrated maybe someone can see what stupid little thing I am forgetting. I have an iRiver (model iFP-780) mp3 player and I am trying to mount it to /mnt/usb. I created /mnt/usb. I plugged the mp3 player in with the usb cable. I tried '/sbin/mount -t vfat /dev/sda1 /mnt/usb'. Okay that didn't work. Here is some more info: /proc/bus/usb/devices contains this: T: Bus=02 Lev=01 Prnt=01 Port=00 Cnt=01 Dev#= 3 Spd=12 MxCh= 0 D: Ver= 2.00 Cls=00(>ifc ) Sub=00 Prot=00 MxPS= 8 #Cfgs= 1 P: Vendor=4102 ProdID=1007 Rev= 0.01 S: Manufacturer=iRiver Limited.

Am I forgetting a kernel module? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Nathan Bullock ps. I am using Fedora Core 2 and both my usb camera and usb palm pilot work fine. ===== Visit my website at http://bullock.mooo.com ______________________________________________________________________ Post your free ad now! http://personals.yahoo.ca
