Pzatch Posted August 19, 2004 Report Share Posted August 19, 2004 The free download version doesn't let you do that. As far as I know. Try PClinuxOS Its MandrakeMove with the options enabled. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I simply mount it as "-type msdos".. which answers your question. Yes, the pen drive is formatted dos by default. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aperahama Posted August 22, 2004 Report Share Posted August 22, 2004 I too am having trouble with a sandisk cruzer mini usb flash drive 256mb model SDCZ2-256. I am using M/D 10.0 and have been using a 32mb usb drive for some time now with no problems. Today a got a sandisk cruzer drive, checked it out in win98, no problem, booted up M/D 10.0 and plugged in the drive and my system just locked up tight, I could do nothing, tried restarting the X display (Ctrl-Alt-Backspace), logout (Ctrl-Alt-Del), opening a terminal (Ctrl-Alt-F2), the cursor would not move. It was just like in windows, I had to press the reset button. I tried plugging it in before logging in to my user account, after logging in to my user account, before switching on the computer... but always with the same result, total non response from both the key board and the mouse. If anyone knows of a work around please let me know. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SurfahBoy808 Posted August 25, 2004 Report Share Posted August 25, 2004 I've had my cruzer mini 256MB for about 6 months and it hasn't worked in MDK at all ever. It works with knoppix though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
