    Sounds like a problem with your kernel module. Try
    `lsmod | grep usb_storage` and if there is no return try
    `modprobe usb-storage` and then add `usb-storage` to your /etc/modules
    file. That _should_ allow you to mount it. If not it may be a problem
    with your dev files- in which case, I am not well suited to answer your
    problem and it _may_ be fixed by resarting (after adding usb-storage to
    your /etc/modules)
