USB memory key ring

[t l]

Seems to work for me....

I inserted my USB "key ring", here are the messages from /var/log/messages:
   Apr 22 07:07:33 fedora kernel: usb 1-1: new full speed USB device using address 2

I then did "mount -t vfat /dev/sda /mnt/diskonkey" and got this in /var/log/messages:
   Apr 22 07:09:17 fedora kernel: SELinux: initialized (dev sda, type vfat), uses genfs_contexts

"ls /mnt/diskonkey" does what you'd expect.....

I can't see how to access my vfat device. Using kernel .322
Mount /dev/sda or /dev/sda1 complains about not being a valid block
device.
 mount -t usbfs none /proc/bus/usb runs but doesn't seem to do
anything.
On the same machine the device automatically mounts under win2k.
