You need to create filesystems on the pen drive. Do an "fdisk -l /dev/sda". See if you get a "/dev/sda1" or something like it. If you don't, you need to partition the drive and make a filesystem on it using fdisk and "mkfs -t ext3" or "mkfs -t vfat" (for a DOS-compatible filesystem).
If you do get a partition, see what the filesystem type is and specify that using the "-t" option of mount:
mount -t vfat /dev/sda1 /mnt/flash
(that assumes a vfat filesystem).
I followed teh instructions above, then tried to mount it again as above and got the same error. However....bit of thinking, I tried mounting it
with mount -t vfat /dev/sda /mnt/flash (no 1 after the sda) and it works. I had to pop the disk into a Windows machine and re-format it
first (though it WAS formatted as FAT, I re-did it as Fat32).
Many, many thanks.
Now to try the Clie with USB connection......
