mount command

what's the syntax for mounting a device in konsole? I'm trying to mount a memory stick creative mp3 player.

 

try here -

mounting USB MP3 Player-Mandriva Linux Help-Linux Forums

I would have a look myself but I am not logged into Mandriva....
Perhaps AT can confirm?

 

worked, thanks.

what's the command to format the device using the FAT fs?
is it this:
mkfs.msdos /dev/sda1/

 

No for a flash disk which uses a FAT32 file system it would be something like:

Code:

mkfs.vfat /dev/sda1

I haven't tried this though.

 

How can you check to see if a device is mounted, and where it's mounted to via konsole?

edit: nvm, got it.
