USB 2.0 memory stick mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sda1, o


Hello,

I have try to mount under Mandrake 9.1 a "USB 2.0 Micro Vault 128 MB" usb key with no success.
I have do the following:

mkdir /mnt/removable
modprobe usb-storage
mount -t msdos /dev/sda1 /mnt/removable/

I got the following message:

mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sda1,
or too many mounted file systems

I have also tried to test differant fs type such as -t vfat ... but with no succes.

Does anybody has a successful experience with this usb key, as I am able to mount other key but not this one.

Thanks

Olivier

It didn't just pick it up? I used a USB thumb drive yesterday and it auto detected it.
