USB disk drive
I'm trying out a FireLite USB drive. It's been used on Windows (from
what the owner tells me and has data on it).
I'm running kernel 2.6.6.
When I plug it in I see this in syslog:
Jul 21 17:18:50 bumby kernel: usb 1-2: new full speed USB device using address 2
Jul 21 17:18:51 bumby kernel: SCSI subsystem initialized
Jul 21 17:18:51 bumby kernel: Initializing USB Mass Storage driver...
Jul 21 17:18:51 bumby kernel: scsi0 : SCSI emulation for USB Mass Storage devices
Jul 21 17:18:52 bumby scsi.agent[1675]: disk at /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:11.2/usb1/1-2/1-2:2.0/host0/0:0:0:0
Jul 21 17:18:52 bumby kernel: Vendor: TOSHIBA Model: MK6021GAS Rev: GA02
Jul 21 17:18:52 bumby kernel: Type: Direct-Access ANSI SCSI revision: 02
Jul 21 17:18:52 bumby usb.agent[1642]: usb-storage: loaded successfully
Jul 21 17:18:52 bumby kernel: USB Mass Storage device found at 2
Jul 21 17:18:52 bumby kernel: usbcore: registered new driver usb-storage
Jul 21 17:18:52 bumby kernel: USB Mass Storage support registered.
And modules seem to load correctly:
bumby:~# lsmod
Module Size Used by
usb_storage 29696 0
scsi_mod 81152 1 usb_storage
lp 10564 0
uhci_hcd 30672 0
ohci1394 34756 0
ieee1394 108340 1 ohci1394
i2c_sensor 2944 0
And it shows up as expected:
bumby:~# cat /proc/scsi/usb-storage/0
Host scsi0: usb-storage
Vendor: SmartDisk Corp.
Product: FireLite (USB 2.0)
Serial Number: 0000000100000f6f
Protocol: Transparent SCSI
Transport: Bulk
Quirks:
bumby:~# cat /proc/bus/usb/devices | grep FireLite
S: Product=FireLite (USB 2.0)
And I've got my device files:
bumby:~# ls -l /dev/scd0 /dev/scd1
brw-rw---- 1 root cdrom 11, 0 2002-03-14 13:54 /dev/scd0
brw-rw---- 1 root cdrom 11, 1 2002-03-14 13:54 /dev/scd1
How do I tell what /dev/scd* the device connects to?
I tried installing the sg3-utils:
bumby:~# sg_scan -i
bumby:~#
And I can't mount:
bumby:~# mount -t vfat /dev/sda1 /mnt
mount: /dev/sda1 is not a valid block device
I tried both of my USB ports.
At this point I'm swinging in the dark.
Any ideas?
