Thanks, Stephen. I told you I was a newbie.

Maybe you can help with a different problem. I have about 30 of these pen drives I plan to use with my high school students. A brand new one mounts correctly as SDA1 and I can access it from KDE as well as a shell.

However, one that has been formatted from Windows XP shows up on the desktop as four separate drives SDA1 - 4 and when I click on any of them I get a message that Knoppix was unable to mount because the file system was unrecognized. It doesn't seem to matter whether the drive was formatted FAT or FAT32.

Any ideas on this one?

Thanks again,
Jeff
