 Posted: Wed May 23, 2007 9:11 pm Post subject: Mounting USB flash drive on Solaris 8 |
 |
|
I know that this has been hashed through before...but I can't
find any info on my problem. I'm trying to mount a USB flash
drive on Solaris 8.
Solaris appears to see the drive -- I did a reconfigure boot,
and here are the relevant messages:
# dmesg | egrep 'scsa2usb0|CBM|usb_sd0'
May 23 16:49:28 valkyrie.itt.purdue.edu usba: [ID 855233 kern.info] USB-device: storage@2, scsa2usb0 at bus address 2

May 23 16:49:28 valkyrie.itt.purdue.edu genunix: [ID 408114 kern.info] /pci@1e,600000/usb@a/storage@2 (scsa2usb0) online
The output from "iostat -En" shows:
usb_sd0 Soft Errors: 0 Hard Errors: 4 Transport Errors: 0
Vendor: CBM Product: Flash Di2108008F Revision: DD1A Serial No: Size: 0.00GB <0 bytes>
Media Error: 0 Device Not Ready: 4 No Device: 0 Recoverable: 0
Illegal Request: 0 Predictive Failure Analysis: 0
The drive appears to be a 64MB unit based on what a Windows XP box
shows. Iostat shows the size to be zero, which is *interesting*.
The device nodes are being created in /dev/dsk and /dev/rdsk. It's
showing up as c5t0d0s[0-7]. My understanding is that I should be
able to mount it (having stopped vold first) as:
# mount -F pcfs /dev/dsk/c5t0d0s2:c /mnt
I get "mount: No such device or address" of this and any out
permutation of the mount command that I can think of.
Any ideas on what I can try here?

Hmmm. I tried out a different flash drive -- this one is a 512MB PNY
Attache'. It seems to work fine, except for the following problem when
unmounting: after I do the "eject rmdisk" command, and the flash drive
is unmounted, I unplug it, and I get the following error messages:
usba: [ID 464422 kern.warning] WARNING: /pci@1f,0/pci@1/usb@2/storage@2 (scsa2usb0): Disconnected device was busy, please reconnect.
usba: [ID 349649 kern.info] usba: offlining scsa2usb0 failed (-5)
Then I plug it back in again, and get:
usba: [ID 464422 kern.warning] WARNING: /pci@1f,0/pci@1/usb@2/storage@2 (scsa2usb0): reinserted device is accessible again
And it mounts the flash drive again. I have no idea if the disk is
cleanly unmounted (since it just has a vfat-type filesystem anyway).
Anyone know what's going on here?
