Morning Terry,

‘cd’ to the USB stick's mount point. Make sure you're in the right
place as otherwise you will wreck havoc. Then:
find -type f -exec mv -i -t $PWD {} +
find -depth -type d -exec rmdir {} +
This assumes there are only files and directories on the USB stick so
moving the files leaves the directories empty. And it passes -i to
mv(1) so it will complain if it's overwriting a file; perhaps you have
files with the same name in different directories.
Could it be the Mini doesn't like the USB stick's filesystem?
