I am using Redhat 9 Linux, and am trying to get my external usb drive mounted (fat32). If I look at the KDE Control panel, it lists a usb 2.0 storage device under "USB Devices" (also in /proc/bus/usb), and under "SCSI" as scsi1. I looked at /proc/scsi/usb-storage-0, and it lists it there also. What... (6 Replies)

mount_pcfs
mount_pcfs(1M) System Administration Commands mount_pcfs(1M)NAME
mount_pcfs - mount pcfs file systems
SYNOPSIS
mount -F pcfs [generic_options] [-o FSType-specific_options] special | mount_point
mount -F pcfs [generic_options] [-o FSType-specific_options] special mount_point
DESCRIPTION
mount attaches an MS-DOS file system (pcfs) to the file system hierarchy at the mount_point, which is the pathname of a directory. If
mount_point has any contents prior to the mount operation, these are hidden until the file system is unmounted.
If mount is invoked with special or mount_point as the only arguments, mount will search /etc/vfstab to fill in the missing arguments,
including the FSType-specific_options; see mount(1M) for more details.
The special argument can be one of two special device file types:
o A floppy disk, such as /dev/diskette0 or /dev/diskette1.
o A DOS logical drive on a hard disk expressed as device-name:logical-drive , where device-name specifies the special block device-file
for the whole disk and logical-drive is either a drive letter (c through z) or a drive number (1 through 24). Examples are
/dev/dsk/c0t0d0p0:c and /dev/dsk/c0t0d0p0:1.
The special device file type must have a formatted MS-DOS file system with either a 12-bit, 16-bit, or 32-bit File Allocation Table.
OPTIONS
generic_options
See mount(1M) for the list of supported options.
-o
Specify pcfs file system specific options. The following options are supported:
foldcase|nofoldcase
Force uppercase characters in filenames to lowercase when reading them from the filesystem. This is for compatibility with the pre-
vious behavior of pcfs. The default is nofoldcase.
FILES
/etc/mnttab table of mounted file systems
/etc/vfstab list of default parameters for each file system

If the directory on which a file system is to be mounted is a symbolic link, the file system is mounted on the directory to which the sym-
bolic link refers, rather than on top of the symbolic link itself.
