Hello,

I've just gotten this USB host-to-host device for my new-year, and I
wonder if it can be used with Linux.

When connected, the device is recognised as a cdrom:

scsi0 : SCSI emulation for USB Mass Storage devices
usbcore: registered new interface driver usb-storage
USB Mass Storage support registered.
usb 4-1: USB disconnect, address 3
usb 4-1: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 4
usb 4-1: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice
scsi1 : SCSI emulation for USB Mass Storage devices
scsi 1:0:0:0: CD-ROM OTi EasyCopy-Net 1.30 PQ: 0
ANSI: 2
sr0: scsi3-mmc drive: 126x/126x writer cd/rw xa/form2 tray
sr 1:0:0:0: Attached scsi generic sg0 type 5


But when I mount it, it stays read-only, even after a "mount -o
remount,rw".

lsusb shows:
Bus 004 Device 004: ID 0ea0:2108 Ours Technology, Inc.

Inside the device I find two chips:

1:
OTI002108-G
AV324102.10613T

2:
SST
39VF040
70-4C-WHE
0622099-L


Any idea how it could become writeable?


Thanks,

Gerard

Hello Gerard,

I've never hear of such a device, but here's my 2c:

Since it looks like a CDROM, why would you be able to mount it rw? Try
doing that with a regular CDROM. You may be able to write to it using a
CDROM burning program.

Doug.
