Here is the start of something combining info from /sys/ with udev. From here we see that not all manufacturers encode their USB devices with any sort of sane, or even identifiable code values... This readout is from a generic MP3 player device with an occupied card-slot, the 512M of built-in storage is sdb and the card slot is sdc.

I'm trying to moun my external USB Mass Storage Drive (80GB) in my Solaris 9 box, I am new to Solaris, and kind of new to linux / unix variants. The external HD contains windows files, but I will be using it as a central storage area for my windows/ linux clients.
Thanks

I'm hunting around for thumb drives that aren't working. Something you may have kicking around in a drawer that you don't need any more. One you've upgraded and just don't need.
I'm willing to pay a couple bucks for you to drop it into an envelope with a few stamps and send it along.

What do you think of the idea of selling flash drives already prepared to boot Puppy Linux on PCs? (I still need to see if I can boot on Macs using online instructions I've found.) I know it's not too hard to prep your own flash drive, even if you have to buy one first, but just think about why... (8 Replies)
I have a script to detect if a host is pingable or not. The problem is that I would like it to put the nonpingable hosts in one file and the pingable hosts in another. I have come up with this so far:

lsusb
lsusb(8) Linux USB Utilities lsusb(8)NAME
lsusb - list all USB devices
SYNOPSIS
lsusb [options]
DESCRIPTION
lsusb is a utility for displaying information about all USB buses in the system and all devices connected to them.
To make use of all the features of this program, you need to have Linux kernel 2.3.15 or newer which supports the /proc/bus/usb interface.
OPTIONS -v Tells lsusb to be verbose and display detailed information about all devices.
-vv Tells lsusb to be very verbose and display even more information (actually everything the PCI device is able to tell).
-s [[<bus>]:][<devnum>]]
Show only devices in specified bus and devnum.
-d [<vendor>]:[<product>]
Show only devices with specified vendor and product ID. Both ID's are given in hexadecimal and may be omitted.
-p <procpath>
Use another path instead of /proc/bus/usb.
-D <device>
Do not scan the /proc/bus/usb directory, instead display only information if the device whose device file is given.
-t Tells lsusb to dump the physical USB device hierarchy as a tree.
FILES
/usr/share/hwdata/usb.ids
A list of all known USB ID's (vendors, products, classes, subclasses and protocols).
/proc/bus/usb
An interface to USB devices provided by the post-2.3.15 Linux kernels. Contains per-bus subdirectories with per-device files and a
devices file containing a list of all USB devices.
