2.4 Linux Installation
USB device support for USB Mass Storage Devices is built in to Linux kernel 2.4.0 and
above. More information can be found at http://www.linux-usb.org
Linux uses a so-called "USB Manager", which automatically loads kernel modules (drivers)
for USB devices. It loads only drivers for devices that are present on the USB bus to reduce
memory usage. Depending on your distribution, the USB Manager may not automatically
recognize the FlyDrive. However, you can configure the USB Manager to recognize the
Drive by adding the following line to the configuration script:
usbmgr.conf (usually in /etc/usbmgr – this may vary with distribution)
vendor 0x05e3 product 0x0702 module scsi_mod, usb-storage
This line identifies the USB FlyDrive and tells the USB Manager to load the SCSI as well as
the USB storage module. The SCSI module is needed in order to talk to both SCSI and
USB storage devices, while the USB storage module is needed to talk to USB storage
devices.
Do not forget to either reload the USB Manager's configuration or to restart the USB
Manager, i.e. do as root:
/etc/init.d/usbmgr reload
Also note that once the USB Manager has detected the drive, you may have to manually
mount it. Please consult your distribution documentation for more information.
