Taking the command in sections Mount see man mount. On mine the command is mount -t vfat /dev/sda1 This is where the computer thinks your usb drive is. To find out plug the usb drive in and look in /var/log/syslog /home/???? This is the directory where you can access the usb drive. You need to create it first And then when you finish unmount /home/???? Or am I missing something -- Henry Mon Feb 25 12:50:39 GMT 2008
