Mounting USB in XSCF on M5000

Trying to update my M5000 firmware. trying to mount my USB to upload firmware and getting the following message.

XSCF> getflashimage -v file:///media/usb_msd/FFXCP1115.tar.gz
Free space: 97MB
Making sure mount point is clear
umount: /media/usb_msd is not mounted (according to mtab)
Trying to mount USB device /dev/sda1 as /media/usb_msd

Trying to mount USB device /dev/sda as /media/usb_msd
mount: /dev/sda is not a valid block device
Error: Unable to mount USB device.

Any ideas?

is your usb drive formated in fat32? if so, create a directory called "images" in the root dir and copy your image to that dir. try again with:

getflashimage file:///media/usb_msd/images/FFXCP1115.tar.gz

also check the docu:

That worked. Thanks for your assistance.
