HowTo Use USB Disks
== Use USB Disks or sticks ==
[[Category:HowTo]]
I have several USB disck and eSATA disk I need on my machine.
I also need to bring files and take files from the machine by USB stick.
I use Putty and Webmin for these things
Install autofs
{{Code|Code= yum install autofs}}
Need VFAT for the big USB Disk or the large files on it:
{{Code|Code= yum install fuse fuse-ntfs-3g}}
Setup the autofs by edit master settings
Change 2 lines to (if not needed)
Add one (or more) line for the USB disk /var/hda/vol /etc/auto.vol --timeout=3
{{Code|Code= nano /etc/auto.master
#
# Sample auto.master file
# This is an automounter map and it has the following format
# key [ -mount-options-separated-by-comma ] location
# For details of the format look at autofs(5).
#
/var/hda/vol /etc/auto.vol --timeout=3
#
#/misc /etc/auto.misc
#
# NOTE: mounts done from a hosts map will be mounted with the
# "nosuid" and "nodev" options unless the "suid" and "dev"
# options are explicitly given.
#
#/net -hosts
#
# Include central master map if it can be found using
# nsswitch sources.
#
# Note that if there are entries for /net or /misc (as
# above) in the included master map any keys that are the
# same will not be seen as the first read key seen takes
# precedence.
#
+auto.master
}}
Add the directory by
{{Code|Code= mkdir /var/hda/vol ; chmod 775 /var/hd}}
Then add the auto.vol file:
{{Code|Code= nano /etc/auto.vol
#
# This is an automounter map and it has the following format
# key [ -mount-options-separated-by-comma ] location
# mountpoint_key options location_device # man 5 autofs
#
cdrom -fstype=auto,ro,nosuid,nodev,user :/dev/cdrom
#floppy -fstype=auto,nosuid,nodev,noexec,user,gid=100,umask=000 :/dev/fd0
K -fstype=auto,nosuid,nodev,noexec,user,gid=100,umask=000 :/dev/sdk1
K.2 -fstype=auto,nosuid,nodev,noexec,user,gid=100,umask=000 :dev/sdk2 #2nd partition
K.3 -fstype=auto,nosuid,nodev,noexec,user,gid=100,umask=000 :dev/sdk3 #3d partition
L -fstype=auto,nosuid,nodev,noexec,user,gid=100,umask=000 :/dev/sdl1
M -fstype=auto,nosuid,nodev,noexec,user,gid=100,umask=000 :/dev/sdm1
N -fstype=auto,nosuid,nodev,noexec,user,gid=100,umask=000 :/dev/sdn1
O -fstype=auto,nosuid,nodev,noexec,user,gid=100,umask=000 :/dev/sdo1
G -fstype=auto,nosuid,nodev,noexec,user,gid=100,umask=000 :/dev/sdg
H -fstype=auto,nosuid,nodev,noexec,user,gid=100,umask=000 :/dev/sdh
I -fstype=auto,nosuid,nodev,noexec,user,gid=100,umask=000 :/dev/sdi
J -fstype=auto,nosuid,nodev,noexec,user,gid=100,umask=000 :/dev/sdj
}}
Now restart autofs and then all is GO
{{Code|Code= service autofs restart}}
Create the symlinks
{{Code|Code= ln -s /var/hda/vol /var/hda/files/Disks}}
Make browse active by edit the file autofs
{{Code|Code= nano /etc/sysconfig/autofs
Change line BROWSE_MODE="no" to BROWSE_MODE="yes"}}
That is all, but for more see:
