I have read the man pages for usb and usbprobe .
usbprobe detects the Pen drive on bus # 5 and lists it as Mass Storage . What do I do next .. how do I access the Pen drive . What command makes the content of the Pen drive accessible Thanks |

Someone in the Legend mailing list just pointed me to a command I'd never heard of. Anyone can run it, but only root will get any output from it:
getlclfsdev Once you know that it's /dev/dsk/whatever, you can either mount that and make a filesystem on it, or tar to it, or whatever else you wish. |

Most pen drives are formated FAT so the dosXX commands work. OS6 automatically mounts USB drives using the next available disk device nodes. So if you have one disk try dosdir /dev/dsk/1s1 or higher if you have more disks already (2s1, 3s1 etc). To copy the files use doscp.

no automount for the USB pen drive device
Hi BEvans ,
The server (SCO Openserver 6) does not automatically mount the pen drive on the USB . However the light in the USB glows and is active . The getlclfsdev command only shows the user filesystems mounted The usbprobe gives --- Path - Address - Description ---------------------------- +++++++ BUS #0 0 - 1 - HUB "UHCI Root Hub" +++++++ BUS #1 0 - 1 - HUB "UHCI Root Hub" +++++++ BUS #2 0 - 1 - HUB "EHCI Root Hub" 3 - 2 - Mass-Storage "N/A" The problem now is the device name for this USB which can be mounted . Thanks , |

The USB drive is automounted as a device, not a file system. To see what device node was created just look at the dates of the device nodes. The most recently added nSX where n is the new device, and X is a bunch of nodes for different partitions etc. If you added disks before this might not work so quickly trying a few of the 1sX devices might be needed.
ls /dev/dsk/?s? The USB drive probably came formatted as a FAT file system. The dosXXX commands can access a FAT file system directly with no need to mount it as a file system. So if 2nX was the set of device nodes created when you first inserted the USB drive commands like the following should work. If you have one disk then 1s1 is the where the flash drive is. dosdir /dev/dsk/2s1 doscp /dev/dsk/2s1:BACKUP.ZIP BACKUP.ZIP Myself I usually use zip and unzip to bundle up files for easy transfer and viewing on windows machines from/to the flash drive. |
