But how do you know that ? it is /dev/sdb ??? this is what is driving me up a wall. it puts these things in the log. I got a whole mess of strange devices in the /dev directory. And if i download a utility..it tells me everything...except what i want to hear... it is plain crazy. mjh On 8/10/07, Marko Randjelovic <marel@sbb.co.yu> wrote:Michael Habashy wrote:To all -- I would appriciate any help...

Is there adocumenton how debian 4.0 deals with usb devices? Somehting that wll help me through this jigsaw puzzle that i got myselfinto? thanks mjhMy MP3 player is on /dev/sdb, since sda is SATA HDD.
It looks like you machine is finding the device and if you look further into the log, you will see where it gets its device name. Here I just plugged in a usb key: Aug 10 10:15:31 proto kernel: usb 3-4.3: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 7 Aug 10 10:15:31 proto kernel: usb 3-4.3: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice Aug 10 10:15:31 proto kernel: scsi7 : SCSI emulation for USB Mass Storage devices

Then you can mount /dev/sdf1 to where ever you like. Alternatively you can install the usbmount package, and it will auto mount usb devices as they get found as well.
