In /etc/updfstab.conf.default, I added the follwing to the flash section: match hd "Generic STORAGE DEVICE" Then using the GUI disk manager, I mounted the sda device, and it showed on the desktop and worked as expected. Regarding an earlier post of mine, this thing DOES have a history of becoming hopelessly stuck in various machines. Sandisk will send a tool that helps take it out. I got mine out with brute force (Much brute force) and it still works. Others have shattered their trying to get it out. I'm not sure my USB socket is the same, but it does still work. BEWARE the Sandisk Mini Cruzer 256 - get a later model. - John
