USB Memory Stick not seen

[Mike Noble]

I can attach a usb hard drive and it is mounted and seen just fine
with FC4.  When I put in my Kingston 512Mb memory stick, it does not
get loaded.  Is there something special I have to do?

You should observe the syslog when plugging in the USB stick: tail -f
/var/log/messages.

According to what the messages says it should be loaded:

mount /media/KINGSTON

I guess /etc/fstab has a related entry.

Your system isn't infested by an evil automount daemon. You can
