Of course...
[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.
