I tried that with /mnt/usb as the mount point. It told me "that mount point doesn't exist", so I created /mnt/usb as a directory. Now it says mount: special device dev/scsi1 does not exist. I have tried mounting it as dev/sda1, dev/sda2, dev/sdb, etc... and it tells me "mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sd*, or too many mounted file systems (aren't you trying to mount an extended partition, instead of some logical partition inside?)" or "mount: /dev/sd* is not a valid block device".Is there a way to tell what it should be mounted as?
