I've had terrible luck getting usb drives to mount properly in Ubuntu 6.06 server. They show up on the desktop, but are inaccessible. I can't mount, since they say they are mounted, but I can not unmount either (some kind of pmount error).
I had a friend point me to a work around for now. First, exit from Gnome. Then login to Xterm (you can pick that option from the login options at the login screen). Now use the standard mount command "mount -t vfat /dev/sda1 /mnt/usb" (Remember to first create the "usb" folder in the /mnt directory, and you will have to find the actual device using fdisk -l)
Anyway, I just thought I'd share that one since I had a harder time than usually figuring it out!
