The answer is in: man mount If your questions are not answered, please ask again. hint: you need to know the device name, /dev/xxxx you also need a free directory to name as the mount point use /etc/fstab as examples -- Patrick Shanahan Registered Linux User #207535 http://wahoo.no-ip.org @ http://counter.li.org HOG # US1244711 Photo Album: http://wahoo.no-ip.org/gallery

Really no need to. Just cd /media/name_of_your_USB_device. It should automatically be mounted. -- Ken Schneider UNIX since 1989, linux since 1994, SuSE since 1998 "The day Microsoft makes something that doesn't suck is probably the day they start making vacuum cleaners." -Ernst Jan Plugge

mount -t vfat /dev/sda1 /mnt/usbdrive Modify the above as necessary to reflect the file system of your drive, its device name on your system, and the mount point you are using.
