I've been working on this for some time.
This script will calculate USB drive Storage Summary
it's convinient for the USB sticks
It will display what type of files you have on your drive/stick and their size in KB and KiB
Save it anywhere you like, make executable, insert your USB Flash drive or drives and wait until they get auto-mounted.
Then start the script.

Code:

#!/bin/bash # store the devices list list=/tmp/devices # get a list of devices devs=`ls -al /dev/disk/by-path/*usb*part* 2>/dev/null | awk '{print($11)}'` if [[ ${?} != 0 || -z ${devs} ]] then     zenity --warning --text "No USB Mounted!"     exit fi # Check with user to make sure they mounted usb stick, no use wasting time zenity --question --title="REMEMBER" --text="Make sure your usb disk is mounted\nDo you want to continue?" --ok-label="Yes" || exit # Initialize list and make sure it is empty >$list # Now get the info about our devices and put it in a list for dev in $devs; do dev="${dev##*\/}";     echo "FALSE" >> $list;     echo -n "$dev" >> $list;     echo " " >> $list;     echo `cat /sys/block/${dev:0:3}/device/vendor 2>/dev/null` >> $list;     echo `cat /sys/block/${dev:0:3}/device/model 2>/dev/null` >> $list;     echo `lsblk 2>/dev/null | grep \`echo -E ${dev}\` |awk '{print($4)}' `B >> $list;     echo `lsblk 2>/dev/null | grep \`echo -E ${dev}\` |cut -c 38- ` >> $list;     echo `lsblk -o NAME,FSTYPE 2>/dev/null | grep \`echo -E ${dev}\`| awk '{print($2)}'  ` >> $list;     echo `ls -l /dev/disk/by-uuid/ 2>/dev/null | grep \`echo -E ${dev}\`| awk '{print($9)}' ` >> $list;         done # clear our array devfs=() # read in the array using a line tmp variable.

Testing on 2 gig Kingston Data Traveler with some Windows And linux Driver files I am going to use on a Wireless Legacy IBM M41 Desktop I am setting up .

Screen shot



The way I tested. Copy and pasted miskos script to /home/username into a document I made called usb.sh
used mousepad to go into permissions and make it executable.
Left clicked and tested after plugging in my usb 1st and made sure it automounted it contents.
Closed the file manager window that opens during automount.
Then opened file manager again and left clicked on usb.sh to run it.

Not sure if this is in LL 2.0 or not but in 2.2 beta you can also right-click on the file and select 'Make file executable'.

misko: Another fantastic script! Keep 'em coming.
