Good some progress. However what is the file system type? I tried:
mount -t auto /dev/sda /mnt/usb
and system response was:
mount: you must specify the filesystem type

If I give:
mount -t usbfs /dev/sda /mnt/usb
the /proc/bus/usb directory was mounted ???????
SO are we on right track?

Secondly how do I know it is sda or sdb ?? The listing for ls -l /dev/sd*
was almost endless!!!
