accessing USB

[Nicholas Sinnott-Armstrong]

you should be able to find the device by typing:
dmesg /more
and then, it should say something like:
DEVICE-NAME:USB drive
and a lot of debug info
after that, type
mount -t hfsplus /dev/DEVICE-NAME LOCATION to add (probably 
/mnt/something. make sure that the directory exists and there is 
nothing else mounted. then, to unmount and remove, type
umount DEVICE-NAME

I don't know if this works because my Wallstreet G3 linux machine does 
not have USB, but the process should be almost the same. also, try 
mount -t hfs if that does not work. if neither works, "man mount" tells 
how to do everything involved in mounting drives.
