I have to mount an usb pen-drive but I have a sata hdd so the command:
"mount ... /mnt/sda ...." will mount my hdd or an hdd's partition .. what i should do? =)

Have you tried "mount /dev/sdb1 /mnt"? That will mount the second SATA drive, so...

-M.

ehm .. my /dev/sdb doesn't exist .. but when i plug my usb pen-drive on my console appear:

"Message from syslogd@localhost at Thu Sep 22 19:01:54 2005 ...
localhost kernel: Disabling IRQ #193"

why? .. this appear only once ..

Code:

dmesg

and find out where your usb flash drive is, then mount it with something like as root.

Code:

mount -t msdosfs /dev/sdc1 /mounting/point

or

Code:

mount -t vfat /dev/sdc1 /mounting/point

Substitute for sdc1 wherever it is. Mount the partition.
