That last code filled up my hard drive and messaged me that it is running out of space. I looked at my files and there is no free space left on my disk. The flash drive is still empty.
I can't seem to get rid of the recurring bubble that says "low disk space". It only gives me a button to "solve this problem." When I click on the button a pop-up gives me three alternatives:
close the pop-up
empty trash
expand with an SD card
After closing the pop-up, the bubble comes back in a short time.
Ok, now what about determining which slot to put my flash drive in? Does it matter? Did the "mount" et. al. commands determine this? Should I run them again? Because I don't recall which slot the drive was in when I ran "mount" et. al. I don't want to run this last code unless either it doesn't matter which slot I use, or I know which one to use.

EDIT: If you want to be really sure, run this after plugging in the drive:
