Linux: Mount: Check: Device: Block: View: How to view all devices?

---

On a command line type:

 ls /dev

to see all devices

---

This will basically show a directory listing
of all entries in the folder '/dev' on your
harddisk.

---

For example:

 tty = a workstation connected to the UNIX system

---
---

If you want to see only a subset of this long list,
on a console command line type:

 ls /dev/hd*

to see e.g. all devices starting with hd in the name
