When I use one USB port only, I mount it as /dev/sdb1. But for simultaneously using two or even three ports, which are the /dev name(s) I have to use?
Wolfgang, scsi devices are named sequentially, so it depends on the sequence in which you plugged in the drives.
So, following your sequential philosophy, the second stick should be /dev/sdb2. But mounting this device failed because it did not exist.
the '2' is the partition-number - the next drive would most probably be /dev/sdc, and you could try mounting /dev/sdc1. You can also check the output of dmesg and see the drive-letter that was assigned when you plugged in the stick.
