Lab 8.1

Hi,

Following instructions for Lab 8.1 verbatim doesn't work for me.   At step 3 after connecting a usb drive and doing `ls -lF /dev | grep myusb` nothing is returned.

I've tried two different thumb-drives, a wireless modem dongle, and a webcam. 

Thanks in advance for any help.

Lex

    Hi Lex,

    1) What distro and version are you using?

    2) When connecting the usb device, please do 'dmesg' and attach the output of it.

    Thanks,

    Luis.

    Hi Lex,

    So, the usb device is recognized by the OS.

    1) Did you create the udev rule?

    2) Did you reload the udev rules by restarting the udev service or rebooting the system?

    Regards,

    Luis.

    Thanks Luis,

    It was 2.  I hadn't restarted the udev service.  As I have rebooted since starting this thread it is now working (you can see in my posted above... I didn't notice lol).

    For future reference, to reload udev rules without rebooting on CentOS 7:

     


    udevadm control --reload-rules

    Thanks again!
