[PROBLEM] which device is my USB HDD?

[mmontev]

Hi mk01,

No, the outputs I posted are what I get with the disk alive.
In addition I stopped xbmc after the first post. same commands, same result.

and no luck with the command you give me. here what I get:

Terminal

root@xbian:/media# findmnt -o source -T /media/SAMSUNG-D680D17280D15997
root@xbian:/media# findmnt
TARGET SOURCE FSTYPE OPTIONS

ââ/home /dev/mmcblk0p2[/home/@] btrfs rw,noatime,thread_pool=1,compress=lzo,ssd,space_cache,autodefrag

last question: how can I get the size of the disk (/media/usb0)? I would like to check what the system sees.

regards,
diego

anyhow, once again available under /media/SAMSUNG-D680D17280D15997, just run this command:

Code:

findmnt -o source -T /media/SAMSUNG-D680D17280D15997

it will show you just the block device name you are looking for.

one more:
what is supposed to be in /dev/bus/usb/001? I see three "files" there: 001, 002 and 003.
