I am learning on Wheezy Beta1, command line only. I am trying to access the USB stick which was the installation media. The box has 2 SSDs. When I look for devices with and without the stick plugged in, the difference is sdc and sdc1 labeled as floppy. When I try to mount either 'floppy' or 'sdc' or 'sdc1', I get a message saying the device is not defined. How do I mount the stick? What should the command line look like? ray
You should be able to see the devices using: ls -l /dev/s* As root you can mount the device using: mount -t <fs> /dev/s??? /<mountpoint>where <fs> is probably vfat, s??? is the device from the ls command. <mountpoint> is whereever you want to mount it.
You can also create a mount point using the device label as a name and add an entry to /etc/fstab for it, with the option "user" so that a normal user can mount it.
