You are either:

A) Not mounting the correct device
B) Seeing the correct files but believe they should be different.


Linux, VMWare etc.. are not going to magically create files. It is doing exactly what you are telling it to do, so you must be mounting the wrong drive. Do an fdisk -l within the VM to see what it is seeing and verify you are mounting the correct device.

so you installed the ANTIQUE " RH9 "
it was killed off in 2003

and PREDATES your "pen drive"

what format is the "usb drive"
fat 32?
ntfs ( if windoes ntfs - then RH( is SO OLD that it has NO support for it )
ext2 ?
if ANY format newer than 2003 RH9 can NOT read it

RH9 is OLD
