No. - As jggimi has stated (& as seen in the output of dmesg(8)...), your USB device is connected as sd1.
- Next, use disklabel(8) find the correct partition to mount:
$ sudo disklabel sd1
- If this USB drive is formatted as MS-DOS, usually this will be assigned to partition "i".
- Once the correct partition has been identified, mount it with the following command:
$ sudo mount -t msdos /dev/sd1i /mnt
- Upon success, you should now see this in the output of df(1).
Partitions for foreign file systems are identified by the following algorithm: - If not already assigned, pick the midpoint between "a" & "p" (which is "i").
- If partition "i" is already assigned, use the next available letter.

Reason: Add algorithmic details.
