Any Linux Server Admins here who can help me for 5 min?

I like what little I've used of Debian

this may help: http://askubuntu.com/questions/285539/detect-and-mount-devices

ls /dev/disk/by-id -> find out which one is the usb stick

let's say it's /dev/sdc1

mkdir /mnt/tmpusb

mount /dev/sdc1 /mnt/tmpusb

try kiyop's instructions

Do fdisk -l to check on all existing storage devices.
Then make a dir to for your device to mount to with mkdir command. Ex (mkdir /mnt/(name of device goes here excluding the dev part))
Then to mount all devices connected do mount -a.

Also, have you had any classes/experience with any distro of Linux?
