Can't mount Sony's PSP onto /mnt/usb


Hi please help..

running on fc3...

Normaly I can mount any USB device on mnt/usb, such as usb sticks, my beloved cowon Iaudio X5 (ipod killer).. and so on.
BUT not the Sony PSP!
~>mount /mnt/usb
mount: special device /dev/sda1 does not exist

Please help!

1.) My etc/fstab entry:
.
/dev/sda1 /mnt/usb auto rw,user,noauto 0 0
.

2.)My /var/log/messages entry when i plug in the PSP (does the PSP have to be turned on when you want to mount it? It doesn't matter or does it?)

Sep 25 19:49:12 tron kernel: FAT: bogus number of reserved sec tors
Sep 25 19:49:12 tron kernel: VFS: Can't find a valid FAT files ystem on dev hdd2.

What filesystem is on those sony memory sticks?

Is this a camera? I don't use PSP mode for my DSC-P52, that way it can also be used as a mass storage device (I prefer using Midnight Commander to get the images and videos off anyway).

The camera seems to work fine even if there are some strange files floating around on the fs too.
