Hello all..
I have a Verbatim 2 GB flash drive. I also have Solaris 10 running on my workstation. If I am in the Windows environment, it detects the flash drive. But when I plug it while I am in solaris, nothing happens. How will solaris 10 detect my flash drive? What do I have to do?
any help is apprecited
thanks

insert the flashdrive and then type "dmesg" in a terminal... post the output (last 10~20 lines) here....
Duke,
Not that good with flash drives on unix...but,
I am guessing your looking for a device from the system from the dmesg and thats the device to use for mounting?
-S
Plug it in and restart the automounter, that's all there is to it...in theory.
The problem arises with filesystems, it needs to be one that Solaris can mount.
What release of Sol10 do you have ?
cat /etc/release to find out.
This applies to S10 HW2 and S10 U1 only. The only way to get the USB driver
support installed in a new install is to load the SUNWCXall cluster. This is the
(Entire Distribution + OEM) cluster. Failure to do so will cause the USB to be
nonoperational.If you loaded a different cluster you may manually add the
following packages to get USB support:
SUNWuedg
SUNWugen
SUNWugenu
SUNWuprl
SUNWuksp
SUNWukspfw
SUNWusb
SUNWusbs
SUNWusbu
SUNWlibusbugen
