In this present config,
mount /media/imation
succeeds, and
mount /media/diskonkey
fails.
Apparently when I copied the above output of ls /dev, I was copying from
a previous query on an open console. I subsequently discovered that the
tail -f procedure had indeed created a sdb1 on the fly, and that mount
/media/diskonkey (sda1) and mount /media/imation (sdb1) succeed, either
sequentially or simultaneously.
My apologies for the oversight, and sincere thanks for your help, HS.
Happy New Year to all! --HU
