I have the same problem, except using a Toshiba P25-S520 laptop and a Sandisk Cruzer Mini 512 MB flash drive, booting from the Knoppix 3.7 CD.
The flash drive isn't recognized either by hotplugging it or by inserting it into a USB port prior to a cold boot. The drive works fine in WinXP Home, SP2. I have the same problem when I insert the flash drive into any of my four USB ports.
"mount -t vfat /dev/sda1 /mnt/sda1" results in a message that says something like "/dev/sda1 isn't a block device."
I noticed that the following line appears in the startup message whether or not I have the flash drive installed when I boot - something like:
Also, there is mention of hda and hdc initialization, but nothing about sda when I'm booting with the flash drive plugged in.Code:USB ports found, managed by hotplug: sync:[001 001 001 001 ]
I would sure appreciate it if you could help me sort this out. I’d really like to be able to use my flash drive with Knoppix.
Many thanks,
Tom

Note: the following snapshots were taken after a boot with the flash drive plugged in.
