I would like to embed Gentoo on it, but I don't know the mount. How can I find the device? > lsscsi # just shows the scsi hard drive. > cat /proc/partitions # just shows the eide and scsi partitions. > lsusb # This does recognize the device and give me the following Bus 005 Device 004: ID 05e0:2000 Symbol Technologies What do I do at this point to communicate with the device?
