When finished, right-click the IK icon on the desktop and select safely remove drive. From here on, you can transfer material to and from the IK as you would for any other USB storage device. This prompts you for your IK password, and after supplying it, you will see your files in the secure partition of the IK. To unlock the IK and reach your secure files, open the linux folder and then the ironkey file within that folder. This instance of the IK is an interim one, a partition that does not contain your secure files.


If your system is configured to automatically open removable media when inserted, then you will also get a Nautilus window with a view of the IK's files. Under Ubuntu 10.4 and 11.04, inserting the IK into a USB port automatically produces an entry in the Places menu and an IronKey icon on the desktop. I found the behaviour rather more automatic than suggested by the instructions that came with my IronKey (IK). Ubuntu 10.04 (Kernel 2.6.32-33-generic-pae Gnome 2.30.2)įor about 3 months, I have been using an IronKey Personal S200, 2GB ().
