USB Supprt

[VieiraR]

HI,

I am using Red Hat 9.0 w/ kernel 2.4.20-28.9 I am trying to mount my Attache 2.0 usb flash drive. I can see it in the Browse Hardware Hard Drive as
/dev/sda
sda1

but when I type mount /dev/sda1 i get
mount: cant' find /dev/sda1 in /etc/fstab or /etc/mtab

please help

Your fstab hasn't been set up to know about your drive. Without that, you need to tell mount what to mount where.

Issue the full mount command:
mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/<dir for drive>

If that works, add an entry to /etc/fstab. Something like:

/dev/sda1 /mnt/attache auto noauto,owner

With that line there, you will be able to mount the drive by simply specifying the device or mount point.

Thank You sleipnir214 that worked and I made the changes to fstab. Maybe you can answer this question also. I have not been able to get my MA111 wireless usb adapter working. Whenever I boot with it pluged in the system crashes on Finding Module Dependencies: I had loaded the Prism2 kernel-2.4.20-28.9 module. Is this the right module or is mine a prism 3. I have recently unistalled the module. ANy thoughts on getting this working?
Thanks again

From what I know, the Netgear MA111 uses the prism2 or prism3 chipset, depending on the exact submodel.
