Observation: "USB DISK" contains a space while "PATRIOT" does not. I would start with renaming the stick from "USB DISK" to "USB_DISK" so there are no spaces to be parsed by the mount command. Debian does have some pickiness that you need to address.
Further, could you issue the empty "mount" command (without quotes) uin Debian Lenny and publish it's output?
