[Tfug] Re: usb flash disc

[Corey Caverly]

Type dmesg after you have inserted the usb device.  It'll tell you where 
it is recognizing the device.  If it is a flash memory device such as a 
pen drive, you generally have to mount them as a vfat device
i.e.
mount -t vfat /dev/sda /mount
this means that you have to have vfat either compiled into your kernel 
or have the module loadable..
