Let me explain a bit clearer :-)

I have some large files on this box (FC6) that I need to also have on my 
laptop (Mandriva).  Therefore I need to rsync

On both the box and the laptop I can see the files in konqueror - so it is 
mounting the drive correctly.  I can move files around manually.  What I 
can't do is find an rsync command that will address the removable drive.
