Today, I will talk to you about how to mount a USB disk in linux. Many people may not know much about it. In order to make you understand better, the editor has summarized the following contents for you. I hope you can get something according to this article.

After inserting the flash drive, generally follow the following steps:

1.fdisk-l / dev/sd*

Fdisk-l lists the partition table information for the specified device. Because the USB disk is simulated as scsi device access, it is automatically named sd*.

Usually this step can find the flash drive, if the flash drive has a light will also be lit, indicating that it has been found.

two。 If there is no response to the execution of the previous command, or if some information display modules are not added

You can lsmod to see if there is a usb-storage scsi_mod sd_mod module.

Add missing modules without modprobe [module].

Then try again. Just ok.

3. Finally, you need to mount the USB disk. Here, you need to create a usb directory under the mnt directory.

Mount / dev/sda / mnt/usb

Some systems need to specify the type of file system, and you can use the

Mount-t vfat / dev/sda / mnt/usb

Let's look at an example:

1: enter the following command in the console state:

Fdisk-l / dev/sd*

If you have more than one USB device, the device name is represented under Linux as sda, sdb, sdc, and so on. After running the above command, the following information is returned on the computer, indicating that the system has found the USB device, the device name is / dev/sda1, bootable (the * under Boot indicates the active partition), the capacity 128MB, and the file system FAT16.

Disk / dev/sda: 131 MB, 131072000 bytes

50 heads, 32 sectors/track, 160 cylinders

Units = cylinders of 1600 * 512 = 819200 bytes

Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System

/ dev/sda1 * 1 160 127984 6 FAT16

2: create a directory where USB storage is mounted under the / mnt directory:

Mkdir / mnt/udisk

3: then run the mount device command to mount the USB device to the / mnt/usb directory: the file system is FAT32

Mount-t vfat / dev/sda1 / mnt/udisk

Or if it is in another file format, such as FAT16

Mount-t msdos / dev/sda1 / mnt/udisk

In order to display the possible Chinese fonts correctly, set the input and output character type to cp936.

Mount-t vfat-o iocharset=cp936 / dev/sda1 / mnt/udisk

[it is true that the font display of redhat9 is not as good as that of windows, and it is all due to Chinese support. This is mainly due to the fact that mount does not use the iocharset parameter when mounting partitions, not because linux supports Chinese.

For example, mount-t vfat-o iocharset=cp936 / dev/sda1 / mnt/usb can also use gb2312 character set codes:

Mount-t vfat-o iocharset=gb2312 / dev/sda1 / mnt/usb

Mount-t ntfs-o iocharset=cp936 / dev/sda1 / mnt/usb

Mount-t msdos-o iocharset=gb2312 / dev/sda1 / mnt/usb]

Give it a try. If not, change / dev/sda1 to / dev/sda.

4: run the following command to view the file information in USB memory.

Ls-l / mnt/udisk

The command to uninstall the USB disk under Linux is as follows:

Uninstall the USB drive must be uninstalled in a different directory, that is, it cannot be uninstalled in the / mnt/udisk directory. The uninstall command is as follows

Change cd / root to the root directory

Umount / mnt/udisk

If device is busy is displayed, you can uninstall it with the following command:

Cd / root

Fuser-km / mnt/udisk

Umount / mnt/udisk
