How to Add a USB Mass Storage Device

1. Become superuser or a console user.

2. Connect the USB mass storage device.

3. Verify that the USB device has been added.

   For example:

   $ rmformat Looking for devices... 1. Logical Node: /dev/rdsk/c3t0d0p0 Physical Node: /pci@0,0/pci108e,534a@2,1/storage@3/disk@0,0 Connected Device: SanDisk Cruzer Micro 0.3 Device Type: Removable Bus: USB Size: 245.0 MB Label: <None> Access permissions: Medium is not write protected.

4. Verify that the device is automatically mounted under the /media directory.

   For example:

   $ ls /media/NONAME aa bb

   You can also use the rmmount -l command to list the paths and nicknames of mountable devices. If the device has been mounted under the /media directory, you will see output similar to the following:

   $ rmmount -l /dev/dsk/c3t0d0p0:1 rmdisk0,NONAME,/media/NONAME
