I love it when stuff just works. Plug it in, check dmesg to see what it says:
hub.c: new USB device 00:02.2-1.1, assigned address 7 scsi3 : SCSI emulation for USB Mass Storage devices Vendor: Generic Model: STORAGE DEVICE Rev: 1.02 Type: Direct-Access ANSI SCSI revision: 02 Attached scsi removable disk sdb at scsi3, channel 0, id 0, lun 0 SCSI device sdb: 512000 512-byte hdwr sectors (262 MB) sdb: Write Protect is off /dev/scsi/host3/bus0/target0/lun0: p1 WARNING: USB Mass Storage data integrity not assured USB Mass Storage device found at 7
So we know from the /dev/scsi/host3/bus0/target0/lun0: p1
line that the filesystem is at
/dev/scsi/host3/bus0/target0/lun0/part1. Create your
mountpoint as root: mkdir -m777 /mnt/cruzer, then edit
/etc/fstab, and add:
/dev/scsi/host3/bus0/target0/lun0/part1 /mnt/cruzer vfat noauto,user 0 0
Any user can mount the device with mount /mnt/cruzer,
and next time Nautilus starts up, the device can be mounted from the
desktop. Easy!
The hardest part was opening the packaging, but you know what I
have to say about SanDisk packaging …
