Accèsing removable media in Bash on Windows

ayi

Existe-t-il un moyen de access removable media (e.g. thumb drives or SD cards) from within Bash on Windows?
Bash on Windows <a href="https://blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/wsl/2016/04/22/windows-subsystem-for-linux-overview/" rel="noopener nofollow ugc">uses DriveFs</a> to mount fixed drives in the <code>/mnt</code> folder, but it doesn’t automatically mount removable media. And it doesn’t look like it puts them in <code>/dev</code> either:
<pre><code class="lang-auto">Aaron@MYPC:/$ ls /dev
block fd kmsg lxss null ptmx pts random shm stderr stdin stdout tty tty0 tty1 urandom zero

</code></pre>
Existe-t-il un moyen de mount removable drives? Existe-t-il un moyen de access the underlying block device?

Good news, it is now possible to mount USB media (including formatted as FAT) and network shares with drvfs on Windows 10:
Mount removable media: (e.g. D🙂
<pre><code class="lang-auto">$ sudo mkdir /mnt/d
$ sudo mount -t drvfs D: /mnt/d

</code></pre>
To safely unmount
<pre><code class="lang-auto">$ sudo umount /mnt/d

</code></pre>
Vous pouvez aussi mount network shares without smbfs:
<pre><code class="lang-auto">$ sudo mount -t drvfs '\server\share' /mnt/share

</code></pre>
You need au moins Build 16176 so you might have to opt-in to the Windows Insider programm and then update Windows.
