When we connect the usb device it will reside as /dev/sdb, /dev/sdc etc.,
We can find that using fdisk -l
Is there any command to list all the usb devices location, like below
Here's one for kernels 2.6.20 onwards:
ls -l /dev/disk/by-id/usb-*
I have no idea if this is foolproof. However, with my USB stick:
# ls -l /dev/disk/by-id/usb-*
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 9 May 4 23:17
/dev/disk/by-id/usb-JetFlash_TS2GJFV30_7JGO3QAD-0:0 -> ../../sdb
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 10 May 4 23:17
/dev/disk/by-id/usb-JetFlash_TS2GJFV30_7JGO3QAD-0:0-part1 -> ../../sdb1
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 10 May 4 23:17
/dev/disk/by-id/usb-JetFlash_TS2GJFV30_7JGO3QAD-0:0-part2 -> ../../sdb2
HTH.
