i have previously gotten my iriver h340 mp3 player mounted under linux. i did something like
- looking at dmesg to see which sdb showed up - mkdir /mnt/H340 - mount -t vfat /dev/sdb1 /mnt/H340
now i'm running fc3
[root@localhost ahoward]# cat /etc/redhat-release Fedora Core release 3 (Heidelberg)
[root@localhost ahoward]# uname -srm Linux 2.6.10-1.760_FC3 i686
and, oddly, ther don't seem to be any sdb devices
[root@localhost ahoward]# find /dev -name '*sdb*' [root@localhost ahoward]#
nothing shows up as a usb device either
[root@localhost ahoward]# ls /proc/bus/usb/ [root@localhost ahoward]#
according to yum i seem to have all the usb stuff installed
[root@localhost ahoward]# yum list *usb* Installed Packages libusb.i386 0.1.8-3 installed libusb-devel.i386 0.1.8-3 installed usbutils.i386 0.11-6.1 installed usbview.i386 1.0-13 installed
as you may have guess by this point i'm not much of a hardware guy. so - why no sdb* devices? why doesn't dmesg or lsmod show anything when i plug in my h340 (yes it's plugged in and shows itself as 'connected as data').
thanks for any pointers
kind regards.
Have you checked sda* ?
