For some reason, although the umts device is mapped to /dev/ttyUSB0, /dev/sda comes to be `busy'. So, if I add in fstab another line: /dev/sdb /mnt/sdb vfat rw,user,noauto 0 0 , I can mount the pendrive on /mnt/sdb. It remains to understand: 1) whay is /dev/sda like `busy' although the modem is mapped to /dev/ttyUSB0? 2) how can I mount it and look inside it? Bye Rodolfo
Perhaps your modem has some sort of disk-like interface that is inactive or inaccessible by default. Look at the manual for the device.
To get around this problem, you might arrange for the modem driver to load after the disk drivers have loaded.
