[ydl-gen] USB Drive

[Derick Centeno]

Hi rev:
I'll assume you read and had no trouble understanding the previous 
links I recommended to you.  From there once your drive is mounted all 
you need to do is use pdisk to wipe out/erase your USB drive so that it 
is formated for use as a LInux drive.  That's it, of course you are 
clear that you'll have to set mount points for the USB drive, a name 
and create a directory within /mnt using that same name.  So let's say 
the name you choose is charles. Then:

# cd /mnt
# mkdir charles

 From then on when you mount that drive you can do:

# mount /mnt/charles

and that should be it.

Best wishes...
