[gentoo-user] usb key question

[Antoine]

Hi,
I get this from dmesg

usb 1-4: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 2
scsi0 : SCSI emulation for USB Mass Storage devices
usb-storage: device found at 2
usb-storage: waiting for device to settle before scanning
   Vendor:           Model: USB Flash Memory  Rev: 1.04
   Type:   Direct-Access                      ANSI SCSI revision: 00
Attached scsi generic sg0 at scsi0, channel 0, id 0, lun 0,  type 0
usb-storage: device scan complete

But I can't seem to mount it... what dev do I mount?
Cheers
Antoine

You might need to run fdisk /dev/sd? then mkfs.* /dev/sd?? . If you
don't have a /dev/sd? , check your kernel for SCSI block device support.

I have "generic scsi" support and there doesn't seem to be anything to 
do with scsi in block devices... the usb key works fine under windows, 
is formatted in vfat and has data on it.
There are a whole bunch of /dev/sd?s but trying to mount to any of them 
gives me "not a valid block devices".

Do you have SCSI disk support.  CONFIG_BLK_DEV_SD=m.  It is under SCSI support.

That must be it... I am compiling now.

insert the device by doing a "tail -f /var/log/messages" and see which it gets 
assigned.

Don't top post *especially* when previous replys are bottom posted.  
Makes it really tough to follow a thread.
