    Hi Phil,
    this indicates that your iRiver is recognized as a usb device.
    All usb drives show up as SCSI devices.
    SCSI hard drives show up as /dev/sdXN and
    IDE hard disks show up as /dev/hdXN.
    So, your iRiver is /dev/sda1.
    To use this device, you make a mount point. A mount point is basically a
    'directory' where you want your device to show up in the / (the root
    file system).
    So,
    mkdir /mnt/iriver
    mount /dev/sd1 /mnt/iriver
    cd /mnt/iriver
    ls
    (you should see your files here!)
    Adding it to your /etc/fstab is another step.
    you may want to 'man fstab' and 'man mount' for more info.

    From the above comment,
    /dev/hdd5 is the disk for your mp3's.
    So,
    mkdir /mnt/mp3
    mount /dev/hdd5 /mnt/mp3
    cd /mnt/mp3
    ls
    (you should see your files!)
    making this perminant by adding it to /etc/fstab.
