adding
/dev/sda1 /mnt/cruzer vfat noauto,users 0 0
to fstab worked perfectly with Fedora Core 1

adding
/dev/sda1 /mnt/cruzer vfat noauto,users 0 0
to fstab worked without problems in Mandrake 9.2

This device does not mount, either as FAT16 or FAT32. I've tried all combinations of various advice provided for this device, including modifying the /etc/fstab file.

Running 2.6.8.1-12mdk on AMD Athlon 64 mobile.

After unmounting the device, the light at the end of the stick is on. "Safely remove" in windows switches off the light. Is this possible in linux?
