From the error message, I suspect you are using sdc1 instead of /dev/sdc1 in you mount command. You may also be able to mount the drive as a user using "gnome-mount -d /dev/sdc1". I am not sure if it will work with the fdi mount rule changes in HAL. You can check the partitions on the mp3 player using "fdisk -l /dev/sdc".
