Try creating rules for the scsi subsystem layer not the usb layer as i think the usb layer is too low to be meaningful to a block level file system. The relevant output is looking at device '/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:02.2/usb3/3-1/3-1:1.0/host17/target17:0:0/17:0:0:0': ID=="17:0:0:0" BUS=="scsi" DRIVER=="sd" SYSFS{ioerr_cnt}=="0x0" SYSFS{iodone_cnt}=="0x2d" SYSFS{iorequest_cnt}=="0x2d" SYSFS{iocounterbits}=="32" SYSFS{timeout}=="30" SYSFS{state}=="running" SYSFS{rev}=="0000" SYSFS{model}=="MHV2080AH " SYSFS{vendor}=="FUJITSU " SYSFS{scsi_level}=="3" SYSFS{type}=="0" SYSFS{queue_type}=="none" SYSFS{queue_depth}=="1" SYSFS{device_blocked}=="0" SYSFS{max_sectors}=="240" For my USB sticks i use BUS=="scsi", SYSFS{model}=="USB SM Reader ", NAME{all_partitions}="card_sm" if you only have one partition this is some what simpler but you can stick to the all_partitions if you like then map the correct partition in /etc/fstab I would guess (after some Chardonnay) at UDEV rules of :- BUS=="scsi", SYSFS{model}=="MHV2080AH ", NAME{all_partitions}="usbhd" this should generate a bunch of /dev/usbhd1 - /dev/usbhd15 entries Set /etc/fstab rules to mount the correct partition. For reference my fstab is /dev/card_sm1 /media/card_sm vfat rw,user,noauto 0 0 Good luck! -- Robin Cornelius http://www.byteme.org.uk
