jmtpfs: If multiple devices are present, mount a specific device.
$ jmtpfs -device=${bus_id},${device_id} ${path-to-directory}
try on your machine
The command "jmtpfs -device=${bus_id},${device_id} ${path-to-directory}" mounts an MTP (Media Transfer Protocol) device (like a smartphone or digital camera) onto a specific directory in the file system. Here's a breakdown of the command:
jmtpfs
: This is the command used to mount MTP devices using FUSE (Filesystem in Userspace). FUSE allows user-level programs to create a virtual file system.-device=${bus_id},${device_id}
: This option specifies the bus ID and device ID of the MTP device you want to mount. The${bus_id}
and${device_id}
are placeholders that need to be replaced with the actual values of the bus and device IDs.${path-to-directory}
: This represents the directory where you want to mount the MTP device. You need to replace${path-to-directory}
with the actual path to the directory. The MTP device will be accessible like a regular filesystem under this directory.
To use this command successfully, you'll need to know the bus ID and device ID of the MTP device you want to mount. You can usually find these IDs by running the "lsusb" command in the terminal and identifying your device.
Make sure you have the "jmtpfs" package installed on your system before using this command.
