You can try running "gpart" on it. That will try to discover the

Ok.
Guessed primary partition table:
Primary partition(1)
type: 012(0x0C)(DOS or Windows 95 with 32 bit FAT, LBA)
size: 14782mb #s(30274944) s(8064-30283007)
chs: (3/60/1)-(1023/63/32)d (3/60/1)-(14786/39/32)r
That looks correct. The stick likely came preformatted as FAT32.
Does "fdisk -l /dev/sdb" show any partitions?
If not, then run "gpart -W /dev/sdb /dev/sdb". This will write the
discovered partition table to the drive and you can try mounting it.

"sudo mount /dev/sdb1 /mnt"
