[Joseph C. Lininger]

The same is true for USB drives in most cases.

Subject: A device Question:


Can anyone tell me what the device is for a USB-drive?

I know that to mount
     an ide drive, the device is: /dev/hdX#
     a scsi drive, the device is: /dev/sdX#

If memory serves me correctly,
A zip-drive, the device is: /dev/sdX#
(this is because the zip drive is treated as pseudo scsi, or so I was
once told.)


Thank you in advance!
