I usually end up looking in /var/log/messages or /var/log/syslog and see
what device has been assigned to the USB mass storage device
eg /dev/sda. Then mount that manually with
sudo mount /dev/sda /mnt/sda
You'll have to make a directory as the mount point or use an empty
directory that already exists.
You may need to specify the partition. Get a list with
sudo fdisk -l /dev/sda
I wish I knew a better way to obtain the assigned device...let me know
if you find out...
