[TriLUG] USB II

[Jeff Bollinger]

Ok, so I plugged my external USB hard drive in and /var/log/messages
reports the following:

Nov  8 11:28:09 sec22 kernel: hub.c: USB new device connect on bus2/2,

Apparently it views the drive as SCSI?  Does that mean I should add an
entry to /etc/fstab for something like /dev/scd0?  I'm still not sure if
the drive is mounted (probably not) and if I need to create a mount
directory...

Thanks,
