Mounting USB Flash Drive in OpenDarwin
Hello-
I've recently been playing around with OpenDarwin. I have been having an issue where OpenDarwin will automatically mount CD-ROMs into /Volumes, but it won't automatically mount my 256MB USB flash drive that is formatted in FAT. What is the command for mounting this?
I know for sure that the drive works (under both Windows Vista and OS X), and it doesn't have anything like U3.
Thanks!

I have pretty much stopped working with OpenDarwin because it isn't compatible with amd64, which the application requires. However, I have switched over to FreeBSD, and was successful in mounting the same flash drive using FreeBSD's mount_msdosfs command. However, the mount command was helpful in finding which device was the flash drive on the system.
