[ale] quick USB storage device question

[Dow Hurst]

/dev/sda is probably the right device if you don't have any other SCSI mass 
storage devices.  Try mounting the device directly:

mount /dev/sda1 /mnt

and see what you get.  "lsusb" will show the usb bus info but the output 
doesn't tie the usb numbers to the SCSI device.  It should be the next device 
that wasn't assigned.
