Connecting Mass StorageThe LinuxBox has two USB ports at its front. These ports also enable you to attach external mass storages, for example, USB Sticks or non-removable disks. A free USB port is available internally. A CompactFlash can be attached to this port. A CompactFlash disc is also available among the accessories. The following instruction allows you to observe how the data carrier is recognized by the LinuxBox: tail -f /var/log/messages
