i think /fstab should have a line like :

/dev/sdx /mnt/pendrive .......

but there is not something like that.

I tried to enable usb-strorage using :
# modprobe usb-storage
this is what he says:

insmod: /lib/modules/2.4.26/kernel/drivers/usb/usbcore.o.gz: No file or directory
insmod: insmod /lib/modules/2.4.26/kernel/drivers/usb/usbcore.o.gz failed
insmod: insmod usb-strorage failed

That would be for automounting, you will add this when you know how to mount manually...
