how_to_mount_usb_in_solaris

1. Insert USB key (ok if machine is alive)
2. "iostat -En" will tell you where to find your USB device, e.g.,

c5t0d0 Soft Errors: 2 Hard Errors: 0 Transport Errors: 0 Vendor: USB 2.0 Product: Flash Disk Revision: 1.00 Serial No: Size: 0.13GB <130023424 byte
s> Media Error: 0 Device Not Ready: 0 No Device: 0 Recoverable: 0 Illegal Request: 2 Predictive Failure Analysis: 0 --> c5t0d0

3. "devfsadm -C"
4. "mount -F pcfs /dev/dsk/c1t0d0p0:c /mnt/" -- Make sure you write "dsk" and not "rdsk". Also, you must have trailing slash on the target directory!!
5. "umount /mnt" when finished
