hi there, i bought a usb pen drive and when I run knoppix in my laptop it works fine. A /mnt/sda1 directory is created automatically end everything is fine.
But when i tried to use it in my PC it doesn't work.

but ther isn't /mnt/sda1 and i cant read /dev/sda1 or anything
help please

I have the exact same problem with my SOYO Cigar Thumb drive, it's a 64MB piece. My system picks up the drive but I don't think it loads the driver for it. If I cat /proc/bus/usb/drivers/0.. or /1.., it shows that the drive is indeed detected.. but system does not translate from there to a "sda" or "sdb" device. How do I go about manually mounting or translating from there to a "sda" or "sdb" device?
I have tried 'echo "add single-device 0 0 1 0" > /proc/scsi/scsi' to no avail. Please advise on correct usage. Normally if driver is loaded for a device, specifically an emulated device, you can 'cat /proc/scsi/scsi' and it would list all devices loaded, including any cd-rom drives.
