Lsusb not found, unable to mount usb drive

[mallets]

On module: mangOH Red (WP7608), with firmware version 9 and legato ver 18.03.

Trying to insert a memory stick into the USB host port of mangOH red. It’s led is blinking and dmesg shows it’s connected properly without errors.

root@swi-mdm9x28:~# lsusb
-sh: lsusb: not found

Even if lsusb isn’t found, the module crashes completely when I use:

root@swi-mdm9x28:~# fdisk -l
Disk /dev/mtdblock0: 2 MB, 2621440 bytes
255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 0 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes

Disk /dev/mtdblock0 doesn’t contain a valid partition table

command, preventing me from even being able to mount it. I did a “Erase user partition” from Legato Developer Studio, did that remove some files? This is happening on all firmware versions (tested 6, 8 and 9).

I noticed that fdisk -l has issues. I forgot to check whether a bug has been reported for this or not. I will try to look into it tomorrow. What I do remember is that fdisk -l /dev/mtdblk0 will work.

I confirm the issue with “fdisk -l” when used without additional parameters.
For USB drives, you can use “fdisk -l /dev/sd*” which is working fine.
I can mount my USB flash drive (FAT32 filesystem) with the same setup as you by using this command:
mount /dev/sda1 /media/

Regarding “lsusb” tool, you can build a custom rootfs image with “usbutils” package by using Yocto.
Or you can use the following “poor man’s lsusb” script:

#!/bin/sh
for D in /sys/bus/usb/devices/*; do
    if [ -d "${D}" ]; then
        VID=${D}/idVendor
        PID=${D}/idProduct
        PROD=${D}/product
        BUS=${D}/busnum
        DEV=${D}/devnum
        if [ -e "$VID" ]; then
            printf "Bus %03d Device %03d: ID %s:%s" $(cat ${BUS} ${DEV} ${VID} ${PID})
            if [ -e "$PROD" ]; then
               echo " "$(cat ${PROD})
            else
               echo
            fi
        fi
    fi
done

Thank you! Mounting USB sticks is working fine now. Your script works alright, but wanted to add native lsusb. Added IMAGE_INSTALL_append = " usbutils" to mdm9x28-image.inc (any better to place to add it?) within the yocto recipes and it successfully added the binaries. But, lsusb is still giving the below issue:

Libusb partly working on red - cannot find usbfs

Hi I am working with a mangoh red board with a wp7502 I am having problems with libusb, that seems to be partly working, If I call lsusb it will break with an "exception unable to initialize libusb: -99" but libusb -t seems to work I have tried the fixes i USB driver failing to find or power USBs with no luck. When I try to call libusb from python it seqfaults and if i try from mono i am able to get libusbversion but as soon as try to get the device list it seqfaults. I also have tried t…

But the package added another bin named lsusb.py, which seems to be working partly.

lsusb.py:
