View 3 RepliesHow do I configure my Debian installation to mount external USB drives to mount points based on the volume names of the drives? For instance, if I have a thumb drive with the volume name of "SWORDFISH," how do I have Linux mount it at /media/SWORDFISH? I'm aware that this can be setup in FSTAB, but that requires that I know the UUID of the device beforehand and that I take the time to set each external device up in FSTAB first. That does nothing for me when I have a thumb drive that has never been plugged into my computer before.
This seems to be setup by default in Ubuntu/Kubuntu, but is not working for me with a fresh installation of Debian Squeeze and KDE4. I've spent the past 2 hours Googling for a solution and have turned up nothing. UPDATE: My results are inconsistent. Sometimes Debian mounts devices to mount points based on the volume names, and other times it gives them generic mount points (e.g. /media/usb1).
I am looking for an application I used in 2001.It was a curses application that displayed devices or files in hexadecimal format, and allowed searching through them and other functionality.

View 3 Replies View RelatedA friend loaded linux onto my eMachine netbook. Unfortunately the touch pad and WiFi refuse to work. He loaded it into a 40gb partition leaving 120gb unusable so it would probably make sense to start all over again. I only need basic txt software, pics and internet to work so I am not looking for state of the art. Just something that will work, is not too difficult to set up and preferably can be loaded from a pen drive (memory stick). Any suggestions? The "distro" as I understand it is Kubuntu. Not sure what version but I will have a look later.
View 7 Replies View Relatedno entries exist in the /dev folder for hdc,cdrom,dvd, or any other drive or drive type than hda. The only other similar device is sg0 which doesn't work either. I have tried every variation of mount I can find with every available drive and drive type and nothing works, but this is the drive I installed FC14 with, and it installed perfectly (except for forgetting where it came from!!)Do I have to install a module or recompile the kernel just to get linux to recognize the drive it came from?

I want to (no reason of course purely interest) get into the internals of my router (which happens to run linux) and be able to mount a drive to which i can save some data which will persist over reboots. I don't care if its only 16kb or whatever. I am guessing it must have some writable memory for the router configuration. I can telnet into the router and get a shell started up (busy box). Also I am aware of options such as tomato and DD-WRT to replace my router's firmware to give me much more access but I do not want to take the risk nor the time in configuring it and would like to retain my ISP's provided firmware. Somethings that might be useful:

I am trying to recover files off a 3.5" IDE Hard Drive that had Windows ME installed on it. I have access to a MacBook, Windows XP Desktop PC, and a cd with Ubuntu 8.10 on it.
Attempts:
1) If I make the HD the only primary master HD it won't boot up.
2) If I make it a slave drive it won't boot up.
3) I purchased an external enclosure from Radio Shack which turned out to be crap and online reports supported this conclusion. I got nowhere with that thing. Bestbuy doesn't sell 3.5" IDE enclosures.
4) By using an IDE / SATA to USB kit, I am able to connect the HD to the PC via USB cable. XP will detect the drive, however the HD will not my displayed under "My Computer" nor "Disk Management".
Onto linux (this is where I grabbed the Ubuntu cd):
5) When connected, the HD will show up under "Computer" as a "USB Drive". When I double click on it I get the error "Unable to mount location Can't mount file".

I want to map a windows shared folder to local directory, but I can't make it writable. I use mount command as following:
mount -t smbfs -o username=kcynice,password=kcynice,user,rw //192.168.1.100/SharedDocs /mnt/WinShare
Yes, this command can mount the network folder successfully, but i can only write it under terminal as root. I googled but got no answer.
So, how to mount it can be write by normal user?
