Hi

I have recently installed SUSE Pro 9.1 on my machine and I'm now trying to get some of the LINUX command line basics under my belt.
Anyway, how and can I access the data on my USB removable drive (Sony 128MB). It is detected by YAST in the hardware section but I don’t know how to view the contents (Am I repeating myself?)

Please help
Cheers

Glenn

When you plug it into the machine, nose through /var/log/messages - my guess is it will become a device

/dev/sda1

then to get at the data you do something like

mount /dev/sda1 /media/smartcard

(creading the directory /media/smartcard first!)

and your data will then be in that directory

(Oh a good reference - www.linuxcommand.org)!
