I have just installed Knoppix from a Linux Format DVD; the only problem is I cannot read any of my USB memory sticks;

it says :could not mount device: the reported error was: mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sda1

missing codepage or other error

try dmesg | tail;

when I did this, I get dad@box:â€*~‬$â€* ‬dmesgâ€* | ‬tailSCSI device sda:â€* ‬4077568â€* ‬512-byte hdwr sectorsâ€* (‬2088â€* ‬MBâ€*)
