[RESOLVED] Could not amount usb drive

[minmao]

I have a Pink B01, followed the instruction here letter by letter and installed to a usb flash drive: http://archlinuxarm.org/platforms/armv6 ... provideov3
Also enable automount (I thought) by running: pacman -Sy udev-automount
Then followed the first steps here: http://archlinuxarm.org/support/guides/ ... irst-steps
Then installed samba following here: http://archlinuxarm.org/support/guides/ ... ions/samba
Also added samba to the daemons list
Later, I also followed this link ( https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Ud ... SB_devices) and changed
"ENV{mount_options}="notime"" to "ENV{mount_options}="relatime" in "/etc/udev/rules.d/11-media-by-label-auto-mount.rules"

But after that, I could not access the second usb flash drive via windows workgroup (windows 7). In the beginning, I could see the pogoplug under the network but got error message when trying to access it. Later, it does not even show up in the network under windows.

Since I don't understand much of Linux, could someone help me to answers these questions (I know they must appear dumb to an experienced user...):
1. When I attached a second usb flash drive to the unit, how could I know it is recognized? (i.e. how could I browse its contents under linux?)
2. After running "pacman -Sy udev-automount", do I need to do anything special like add something to the daemons list? Or does it mean the auto-mount is enable everytime even after reboot?
3. My understanding is when an usb drive is attached, it will be automouted or mapped as a folder under /media. But after log in as root, I could not see anything under the /media/folder.
Here is what I did to check, I hope I did it right :
cd ..
cd media
ls

Thanks a lot!

1) ls /media
2) Just a reboot will fix it, if that is even needed. udev is a daemon in itself.
3) Theoretically, that should indeed be it. However, your alterations to the udev rules may have caused them to be invalid.

Thanks for repsonse. I ended up reinstall everything step-by-stop.
I just found out for some reason, the usb flash drive I was using could not be automounted. I tried a different one and that works fine.
