file name on usb flashdrive only 8.3

[Sit Heel Speak]

I have no idea. Long filename creation also works OK for me when I mount the device from the command line.

I must be off to sleep. I leave this problem to better minds than mine...

I found the missing part:

modprobe sg
modprobe usb-storage

Unfortunately this is not true anymore for Puppy 2.01rc2

How to get long file names? Is it now another module?

What is the status of this across versions? The problem is this:

- If USB boots Puppy and has pup_save in it, the USB gets mounted automatically, but when viewed in MUT, it displays only 8.3 filenames
- there is no way to unmount it, and it is automatically mounted at boot time

I wonder if the problem is the same with IDE flash drives?

It was fixed with the next version. (My message was from a year ago! Now I use 2.14)
