Yeah, I've tried that also - same response.  Another curious thing, when I 
originally connected my flash card reader and put a flash card in it, I 
could pull up diskdrake and it would find the flash card on it's own.  In 
fact, that's how I would tell which partition it wanted to use - I've done 
the same thing with pcmcia cflash adapters and my usb zip drive.  When I 
try that for the thumbdrive, it doesn't show up at all.  It seems that 
it's just not recognized as a device.  I read somewhere that 
'usb-storage.o' needs to be loaded, but lsmod doesn't show it.

  "AOL for Dummies" is kind of redundant, don't you think?
