When I plug my stick in I see this from my dmesg: Feb 4 17:42:20 [kernel] sda: assuming Write Enabled Feb 4 17:42:20 [kernel] sda: assuming drive cache: write through Feb 4 17:42:20 [kernel] WARNING: USB Mass Storage data integrity not assured Feb 4 17:42:45 [kernel] usb 2-1: USB disconnect, address 3 Feb 4 17:42:48 [kernel] hub 2-0:1.0: new USB device on port 1, assigned address 4 Feb 4 17:42:48 [kernel] scsi2 : SCSI emulation for USB Mass Storage devices Feb 4 17:42:49 [kernel] Vendor: LEXAR Model: JUMPDRIVE Rev: 1.20 Feb 4 17:42:49 [kernel] SCSI device sda: 251904 512-byte hdwr sectors (129 MB) Feb 4 17:42:49 [kernel] WARNING: USB Mass Storage data integrity not assured Feb 4 17:42:49 [kernel] USB Mass Storage device found at 4 Hope that helps a little. -j On Wed, 2004-02-04 at 14:46, Karthik Vishwanath wrote: > Hello, > > How do I mount a usb memory stick?
