All I did was install hotplug (I think there's a usbmgr that works, too), set up a mount point and entry in /etc/fstab for it. I don't think it came formatted, but it might have been that I just didn't have the drivers for fat12. I just formatted it ext2 anyway since I didn't expect to use it on anything other than linux machines. The usb-storage drivers report drives as scsi devices, so you'll want to make sure you're looking for a scsi disk. -- Brian Hicks <http://eight.dhs.org> <hick0142 at umn.edu> <PGP:0xADDD1F16> This message would self-destruct in 10 seconds, except I'm not that clever. -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
