[rhn-users] RE: USB mount

[caumann]

As an earlier poster noted, check your logs to see where the USB drive is 
being mounted when you plug it into your computer.

What I did is added a line to the /etc/fstab:

/dev/sdb1     /mnt/usb     auto   noauto,user,noatime 0 0

/dev/sdb1 may be /dev/sd?? for your computer - need to check your logs. 
Of course, you need to create the directory /mnt/usb as well.

Then, when you plug your usb drive in, right-click on your desktop, scroll 
down to disks.  You should see Floppy, CD-Rom, and USB.  Click Usb and you're 
off to the races.

Fedora Core 3 is much easier - it autodetects the usb drive as soon as it is 
plugged in and puts a foofy little icon on your desktop.
