..easy now, first find out a few things.
"fdisk -l " as root will tell you which filesystems you have 
whenever you stick something into your box.
"mount -v /dev/a_filesystem_found_with_fdisk_-l_ /mnt" will 
either confirm it worked, or be a little bit more verbose 
about why it failed.  
Pile on more "-v" if you want more, or chk "info mount".

.."man -k mount " will tell you what mount like things you have
installed, "apt-cache search mount " will search for more of 
these mount like things, e.g. "apt-cache show mount " will give 
you more details on each search find.

..I'm really a little too old fashion to advice on those new 
fancy usb key etc automount things.  Anyone?

  Scenarios always come in sets of three: 
  best case, worst case, and just in case.
