Default Transferring files to Amazon Kindle
I have attached my Amazon Kindle via usb and want to mount it to allow me to transfer files. The relevant lines in dmesg are:

umass0 at uhub0 port 5 configuration 1 interface 0 "Amazon Amazon Kindle" rev 2.00/1.00 addr 2
umass0: using SCSI over Bulk-Only
scsibus4 at umass0: 2 targets, initiator 0
sd0 at scsibus4 targ 1 lun 0: <Kindle, Internal Storage, 0100> SCSI2 0/direct removable serial.19490004G10571030R3J

I think the kindle is at /dev/sd0c. I tried:

doas mount /dev/sd0c /mnt but this gives:

mount_ffs: /dev/sd0c on /mnt: Invalid argument

I assume it wants a different file system but what should I put?
