Date: 2013sep25 OS: Linux Q. Linux: How I can show the devices that are removable media on my Linux box. (eg thumb drives, etc) A. This nearly always works:

df -T | grep -w vfat

This lists all mounted deices that are type "vfat". There is no guarantee that they will this type but they probably will be. This format works on Windows, Linux, cameras, etc. More info http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File_Allocation_Table#VFAT
