[root@phoenix ~]# mount -t vfat /dev/sdb1 /media/usb/ mount: special device /dev/sdb1 does not exist I tried sdb1-10, sdc1-10, etc. Nothing. I only have a single hard disk, and it's SATA. What worries me is that in other posts on memory sticks, people showed in /var/log/messages entries saying what sd? the memory stick was seen as. I only see in my logs a single entry: Aug 13 12:01:22 phoenix kernel: usb 5-1: new full speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address 2 Something is amiss here. I don't know what to look into.
