I was given a USB pen ... a disgo pro 128mb - can't get it to work on my computer. I'm running Debian Linux - anyone know if it's possible to get it to work or is it not compatable? Thanks,

find where its located with dmesg then add a line to your fstab and just use auto and then from now on you can mount /dev/usbstick and it will auto mount and you odnt have to worry about what fs it is. since i never make sense explaining stuff heres my line:
/dev/sda1 /mnt/usbdrive auto noauto,rw 0 0
so /dev/sda1 is where it is. i mkdir'ed /mnt/usbdrive and it mounts read/write. I dont know what the 0 0 means so maybe someone can explain that.
i think we should make a sticky on this topic because it is such a common problem, in fact i remember having it when i first installed slackware 9 (my very first distro was slack 7) and bought a 64mb thumby.
Yeah thanks for the help... I think I can figure this out. Not home to try it until tomorrow though. I've been away for a good while. I'll let you know. Thanks,
