How can I tell how my USB devices are indentified in Linux? I want to
be able to mount my Sandisk USB mass storage device to get pictures off
my camera's CF card. I know through trial and error that my Zip 250 USB
drive is seen as /dev/sda1 so I created a mnt/sda1 to access it. I have
several devices connected via USB including printer, mouse and scanner
in addition to the devices mentioned. Here is the applicable portion of
dmesg:
usb.c: registered new driver usblp
printer.c: usblp0: USB Bidirectional printer dev 3 if 0 alt 0 proto 2
vid 0x043D pid 0x001D
printer.c: v0.11: USB Printer Device Class driver
usb.c: registered new driver usbscanner
scanner.c: 0.4.6:USB Scanner Driver
