User Feedback :: How to make DSL recognize my USB disk?
When I attach my USB disk to USB port (when DSL is running in RAM), I don't see my USB drive anywhere.
What to do???
try
mount /dev/sda1
If it gives no errors, then your usb should be in mnt directory you can get your self there by typing
cd /mnt/sda1
in terminal
Or with emelfm
Or you can use the mounter program which usually is on right bottom of the screen.
Under the file manager go to /mnt/sda1 and right click, then click mount. That is what I did.
