Hi to all :

This is my first question in here because I'm new to Linux and I still didn't grasp it well.
I'm using Slackware 11 on VMware 5.5 .

My problem with the pendrive is solved now. Thanks to Mechdave !!!
Really I dont know what is the mistake. But I have started to use Slackware 3 days ago..So please dont blame me for being naive.
I would to know how to install my usb modem (After I install Slack definetly - Without VMware ). Its model is ZTE ZXDSL 852 I searched for its linux drivers but I didn't find them but I know for sure that it is compatible.Any one has an idea how to install a usb modem ???
Any info is appreciated

Thanks,

You are on the right track, All you missed is that most likely you have not created a mount point under /mnt to mount sda1 on, also you are trying to mount a physical disk (/dev/sda), whereas to mount a partition you need to use the partition name (ie. /dev/sda1).
Make a directory (as root or superuser, su -l root)under /mnt for flash like this:
Your above mount line should look like this:
Then it should all work for you...

Thank you very much mechdave !!!!!!!!!!
That solved my problem. Nice to get help from kind people like you

You can find out instructions on how by visiting http://ubuntu-linux-solutions.blogspot.com/ or http://linux-sri-lanka.blogspot.com

Instructions surely work for Ubuntu system as that is how I got my ZTE ZXDSL 852 running.
