What doestell you?Code:fdisk -l
Your USB stick is *probably* /dev/sda so maybe try this:
Code:mkdosfs /dev/sda1
Not sure if this is even the right section of the forum for this question. I have a Kinston USB thumb drive that I can no longer read or format. Is there a tool in Knoppix that will help me to repair this drive?
Thanks!

If you go into Qtparted it should find the drive I believe but im not sure and in there you may beable to reformat it
what few seem to realie is that flashdisk "wear" that is each time it is read/written to it wears some.
they only guarantee 10 000 read/writes on the cheaper ones.
that is if you put/get a file from/to your stick you write that information to the file allocation table/s (fat) when these have been written/read enough times the rest of memory is not accessible as the filesystem does not know where they are located anymore
After booting to Knoppix, ran qtparted it asked me to create a new partition table on the drive. I was then able to create a filesystem and format. Both linux and windows recognize it and it shows no errors.
Thanks to all who helped!!
