[LUGSB] Problem wtih pen drive

[Skip Evans]

Hello all,

I am new to the list, and am using Xandros Desktop 2.0, a Debian
based distribution, and just purchased a Rosewill 1.5GB RJB1536
pen drive.

The Xandros file manager seems to recognize the device, and calls
it /dev/scsi/host1/bus0/target0/lun0/part1

But not one of a dozen attempts I've made to mount the device
seems to work.

My latest is this. I have placed this entry in /etc/fstab:

/dev/sda  /mnt/flash  msdos user,noauto    0     0

And when I try to mount it, I get this:

linux1:/etc# mount -t msdos /dev/sda /mnt/flash
mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sda,
       or too many mounted file systems

Any advice would be greatly, greatly appreciated.
