Thumbs up Mount HDD via USB interface (Fedora)

basic example --->> "cd /" "cd mnt" "mkdir archos"
- issue the command "su" (without quotes obviously) in a console
- fill in the root password
- try to mount manually still as root "mount -t vfat /dev/sda1 /mnt/archos"
- then via a file browser, try to read the folder (which is actually a mountpoint) /mnt/archos
I'm using "Fedora Core release 1 (Yarrow)" (the next redhat...), an clean install.
I just followed the QUOTED instructions, everything is terribly fine in a very Old PC (USB1.1, AMD K6-2 533).

Then I can copy to and from HDD via USB interface.
