3.11.1 Connecting an External USB Drive
To connect a USB drive, plug it into one of the USB ports. The system should recognize the drive immediately.
Check the kernel log to find the device name:
dmesg -f
You will be able to mount its partitions (assuming mapping to /dev/sdb1):
mkdir /mnt/usb1
mount /dev/sdb1 /mnt/usb1
ls /mnt/usb1
