Problem while mounting the USB flash drive

[Nishant Desai]

Dear All,

I have just do the necessary changes in the /mnt folder and my /etc/fstab file for detecting the USB flash drive into my PC and my PC is also detecting the flash drive at /mnt/usbstick and shows the contents there also, but when i try to mount it through the command, it shows me that
"mount: fs type 0 not supported by kernel"
what kind of problem is that and what could be the solution for that?

Thanks in Advance,
Nishant

Hi !!

what command are you using ???
mostly USB drives have FAT32 system... use vfat or auto with mount .......

ya i m using the vfat in the fstab file for the USB drive assginment, but, as you are saying should i use it with the mount command? mean 'mount vfat usbdisk', 'mount auto usbdisk'?

Thanks,

This is the entry in my fstab file, look at it, and yes i am using the mount command, simply mount usbdisk at /mnt in the terminal.
