I would think using this adapter is same as using a pcmcia flash card. I do
the following to use a flashcard:
1. add the following to /etc/fstab
/dev/hde1 /mnt/flash vfat user,exec,dev,noauto 1 2
2. create the mount point
mkdir /mnt/flash
3. Now insert the flash card
4. mount the filesystem
mount /mnt/flash
