try then "mount -t msdos /dev/sda1 /mnt" (it depends on the way your stick has been formatted, old-school or not-as-old-school). And for the "/dev/sda1" part, you should check in your dmesg output to make sure this is the actual location assigned to the device after detection. According to the output you gave, you should simply try "/dev/sda". Regards, JB.
