   Okay, I was able to mount the USB to media/usbdisk using "mount /dev/sdb1 /media/usbdisk". Thanks for the help!

   Ah, you're running an older version - possibly SliTaz Aircrack-ng. The thing with Aircrack-ng is that it's built on the cooking prior to the SliTaz 3 release, so it lacks some of the fixes and boxes introduced in SliTaz 3. It's also clear that HAL isn't starting right. By default it should show any inserted CD-ROM or USB device in the left-hand panel of pcmanfm, which will allow you to mount them with a click.

   Maybe you should try using the SLiTaz 3 or Cooking ISO from the main SliTaz website. It does include an aircrack package for both now, so the Aircrack edition is kind of defunct now.

   I would, but I'm using it for ophcrack, and I don't have the expertise to modify the latest slitaz to put ophcrack on it. The workaround should be enough for me, though.

   hello everyone!
   i'm new to linux in general and especially to Slitaz.
   i've booted to ophcrack slitaz and my usb ( FAT32, 2GB )
   is also is in read only mode.
   i'm logged on as root.
   tried to change the usb fs to FAT and NTFS.
   when formatted as NTFS it's not listed in the PCmanFM
   when formatted to FAT , same issue as with FAT32.

   without mounting it i can see it's already mounted after boot in the PCmanFM.
   when i try to unmount it , the following error is given :
   "Error org.freedesktop.Hal.Device.Volume.UnknownFailure"
   in the PCmanFM console the usb appears to be in /mnt/sdb1

   in the mountBox i can see a mounted fs :
   /dev/root 1.8GB ...
   in the Umounted dev section nothing appears.

   when i ran the "dmesg" command as suggested by you guys,
   i got a lot of things but at the end of the output it says :
   ..
   ..
   usb-storage : device found at 2
   ..
   sdb: sdb1
   sd 2:0:0:0: [sdb] Attached SCSI removable disk
   sd 2:0:0:0: Attached SCSI generic sg2 type 0

   also tried to run :
   "mount /dev/sdb1 /media/usbdis"
   mount : mounting /dev/sdb1 /media/usbdisk failed: Device or resource busy.

   in other forums people suggested to check for information in /etc/fstab
   proc /proc proc deafults 0 0
   sysfs /sys sysfs deafults 0 0
   tmpfs /dev/shm devpts deafults 0 0
   #/dev/hfa3 /home ext3 deafults 0 2
   #/dev/hdb1 /mnt/data ext3 deafults 0 2
   /dev/cdrom /media/cdrom iso9660 user,ro,noauto 0 0

   i would really appreciate any help.
   thanks,
