RedHat5 enterprise
when i plugged in an USB thumb drive, redhat automatically mounted to /media
i did a "umount /media/driveName" and it went away.
i tried to mount it again "mount /dev/sda /mnt/usb"
i got """mount: /dev/sda already mounted or /mnt/usb busy""""
i am actually not sure if /dev/sda is the right device.
"grep -i usb /var/log/dmesg" doesn't give me very good idea where my usb is.
any good suggestion? please.. thanks
Your current working directory could be /media while unmouting usb. Check if usb is actually mounted anywhere using either mount or fdisk -l command.
when you finish your work with USB. You must unmount Device.
Use this umount /mnt/usb or your exect location where you mounted USB.
