Are you sure that the USB flash drive isn't formatted with NTFS?  If not,
which file system is on it?  If it is, then maybe you haven't enabled NTFS
in your kernel.

I'm not sure why you are referring to /dev/sda when the flash drive appears
to be /dev/sde.  Also, I'm not sure why you need NTFS unless a version of
Windows is installed somewhere, or you need to read an NTFS formatted
device.
