How do I mount U disk of FAT32 on Linux system


Linux mount the U disk as follows

1: insert the U disk into the USB interface and check whether the

is plugged in

2: check the partition and USB device information

with the fdisk command

[root@wgods ~]# fdisk -l

Disk /dev/sda: 1000.2 GB, 1000204886016 bytes 255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 121601 cylinders Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes

Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System /dev/sda1 * 1 13 104391 83 Linux /dev/sda2 14 121601 976655610 8e Linux LVM

Disk /dev/sdb: 4012 MB, 4012900352 bytes 223 heads, 55 sectors/track, 639 cylinders Units = cylinders of 12265 * 512 = 6279680 bytes

Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System /dev/sdb1 * 56 640 3580928 c W95 FAT32 (LBA) Partition 1 has different physical/logical beginnings (non-Linux?): phys=(42, 17, 40) logical=(55, 23, 1) Partition 1 has different physical/logical endings: phys=(487, 222, 55) logical=(639, 6, 31)

From the above information, we can see that the USB device is in FAT32 format, identified as /dev/sdb1

[root@wgods ~]# fdisk -l | grep FAT32 /dev/sdb1 * 56 640 3580928 c W95 FAT32 (LBA)

3: create a usb directory

under mnt

[root@wgods ~]# cd /mnt/ [root@wgods mnt]# mkdir usb

**4: mount U disk **[root@wgods mnt]# mount -t vfat /dev/sdb1 /mnt/usb

Once mounted successfully, we can see the relevant content under /mount/usb.

5: uninstall U disk

When the umount command unloads the U disk, the following error is reported: “device is busy”. The problem can be resolved with the l parameter. Of course, you can also use the fuser command to solve the problem.

is shown below

[root@wgods ~]# umount /mnt/usb umount: /mnt/usb: device is busy umount: /mnt/usb: device is busy

[root@wgods ~]# umount -f /mnt/usb umount2: Device or resource busy umount: /mnt/usb: device is busy umount2: Device or resource busy umount: /mnt/usb: device is busy

[root@wgods ~]# umount -l /mnt/usb

**problem solved **

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[root@wgods usb]# umount /mnt/usb umount: /mnt/usb: device is busy umount: /mnt/usb: device is busy [root@wgods usb]# fuser -m /mnt/usb /mnt/usb: 21123c 21158c 21180c 21182c 21223c [root@wgods usb]# ps -auxw | grep 21123 Warning: bad syntax, perhaps a bogus ’-’?

[root@wgods usb]# fuser -kvm /mnt/usb

[etl@wgods ~]$ umount /mnt/usb umount: /mnt/usb is not in the fstab (and you are not root) [etl@wgods ~]$ su - root Password: [root@wgods ~]# umount /mnt/usb

**6: delete usb directory **[root@wgods ~]# umount -l /mnt/usb [root@wgods ~]# rm -rf /mnt/usb

Note: sometimes the Chinese file name and directory name will be scrambled when mounted. To avoid this, you can specify a character set by following the command

[root@wgods ~]# mount -t vfat -o iocharset=utf8,codepage=uft8 /dev/sdb1 /mnt/usb

[root@wgods ~]# mount -t vfat -o iocharset=cp936,codepage=936 /dev/sdb1 /mnt/usb

Note: cp936 means simplified Chinese, cp950 means traditional Chinese.
