→Investigation 1: How does Linux enable you to access two different drives without using a drive designator?
#* <code>/dev/sdb1</code> tells the mount command which device to mount. (If this didn't work try <code>/dev/sdc1</code> or <code>/dev/sda1</code>)
#* <code>/media/usb</code> tells the mount command where to mount the device (the "mount point")
# Type the command mount and compare the output with the output from step 91. Record what has changed.
# What file system type is the USB device mounted as? Where was it mounted? What is the device name?
# Create a file in the directory /media/usb/ by redirecing the output of the cal command: cal >/media/usb/month
# Display a detailed listing of the directory where the device is mounted and record the output: ls -l /media/usb
# Type the command umount /media/usb -- What happened to the contents of the /media/usb directory? Compare results with step 179.# Type the command mount and observe the output. What is different from step 146? Why?
# Make a new mount point called /media/usb2 Mount your usb flash drive on the new mount point.
# Display a detailed listing of the new mount point again. Is your file there?
