Hi

if this is a card reader then it will be most of the time something like

mount_msdosfs /dev/da0s1 /mnt/usb

Just have a look into /dev


Cheers Oliver

Shining with all his might:
He did his very best to make
The billows smooth and bright --
And this was very odd, because it was
The middle of the night.
