<div dir="ltr">Gabor,<br><br>The solution is simple. I am guessing you've recently installed Ubuntu 8.10, so I bet you haven't installed the 'usbmount' package.<br><br>Undo any changes you've made, reboot (just to be on the safe side) then install <i><b>usbmount</b></i> and try again. It worked for me as soon as I installed the packge - no need to restart or even to log out and log in again.<br>
<br>I tried one of those DOKs by SanDisk with the U3 system and it just mounted two separate devices.<br><br>I didn't know it is possible to remove the U3 system and that is why I refrain from buying the Cruzer hardware. I don't use it or plan to use it, so I will follow Shahar's advice and remove the U3 system.<br>
<br>Good luck!<br clear="all"><br>.:====================================================:.<br><br>Amichai Rotman<br><br>UIN#: 6401746<br>Registered Linux User#: 201192 [<a href="http://counter.li.org/">http://counter.li.org/</a>]<br>

I have just bought an 8Gb SanDisk Cruzer Micro (USB 2.0) disk on key.<br>
I plugged it in my computer, the reassuring red light came on but Ubuntu 8.10<br>
did not recognize it.<br>
<br>
Surprising as a disk-on-key should not have such issues. Especially one with a<br>
Penguin on the box!<br>
<br>
I searched a bit and found a couple of links, none of them really reassuring.<br>
Any idea what should I do?<br>
<br>
