Mounting thumb drive.

On my two Slackware 9.1 (kernel 2.4.22) systems
each mounted my thumbdrive (Sandisk microcruzer 128 MB) with

mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/hd

df -T indicated that it was a 'umsdos' filesystem.

Slackware v10.0 & 10.1's kernel (2.4.26 & 2.4.29) found a
 /dev/sda1 device and I could

mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/hd
 and
df -T indicated that it was a 'msdos' filesystem.


tail /var/log/messages indicated that the kernel found a /dev/sda1 USB device.

Does your kernel find your USB device and put information into
/var/log/messages?
