I'm running Lubuntu 12.10 and everything was going fine until yesterday. Whenever I try and use an SD card or USB stick/USB hub it won't recognize it in the file manager.

I ran lsusb which recognized the Kingston Datatraveler USB that I'm trying to use, but when I ran ls /dev/sd* it came up with

/dev/sda /dev/sda1 /dev/sda2 /dev/sda5

WITH the USB stick still in.

So I am sort of a noob with Linux and I am having an issue seing a USB stick. I plug in the USB stick and cant see it anywhere. How do I mount it so I can see it.

Last night I unlocked the boot loader and rooted my Nexus 7. Today I installed Stick Mount and plugged in a 500GB WD external hard drive. The drive powered up fine and Stick Mount appeared to mount it successfully. What confused me was unmounting it. When I selected unmount, it came up still listing the drive as an active mount.

Hi it's me again, the general newbie nuisance..I need help again.When I insert a usb stick I have to use the terminal to mount it. Is there a way for it to automatically do this, or would I be able to create a button like a macro that will run the terminal script when I insert a stick?Thanks Mariann

On Centos 6, I am trying to copy some files from a Fat32 stick.

I do a "fdisk -l" then take that name and mount it with this command:

mount /dev/sdb1 /mnt/usb

I see the files there (I didnt count them tough), then I try to copy them from stick to HDD with this command:

cp -r 3 /_folder

Where "3" was the one and only directory on the stick, after it runs for a while I get these errors:

how to modify an iso image file 2 years 33 weeks ago

Hi,

I'm trying to create a customized debian installer on a USB key. I found a tutorial on how to create the usb key. After the USB key is prepared, all you have to do is to copy the iso file to the stick.

So what I need to do now is to be able to modify the content of the iso file before copying it to the usb stick.

I found how to mount iso file to a mount poinr but I can't find a way to chan
