"I'm using Solaris 8 on x86 and I would like to transfer some files by
way of USB pen drive. When I plug it in, the thing is recognized but I can't
figure out how to mount the thing."

mount -F pcfs /dev/dsk/c1t0d0p0:c /mnt

should work, assuming c1t0d0 is the disk device created for the USB
mass storage device. You can find out the correct device name with

ls -l /dev/dsk/*p0 | grep storage
