Default SOLVED:how do i mount usb

just installed netbsd and wondering how do i mount a usb stick
i put the usb in and it comes up as "sd0" but when i try to mount that it says no such file or folder so i try sd0a > sd0g and still no mount or it says device not configured yet
any idea
is this correct typing "mount -v -t msdos /dev/sd0 /mnt"

See http://www.daemonforums.org/showthread.php?t=2232 According to the second post in this thread the demonstrated OpenBSD method, albeit with a few minor modifications, also works on NetBSD.

No it is not. MSDOS is usually i partition. Try

Code:
mount -t msdos /dev/sd0i /mnt

Actually no, NetBSD starts counting foreign file systems from "e", so it will probably be sd0e.

thanks guys
yeah your right s0xxx it was sd0e
figured out you run command "disklabel sd0 and it tells you which letter to put at the end"
cheers
