This is probably extremely simple, but I can't quite figure out how to do it. I believe the drive is /dev/sda, but when I try running:
mount /dev/sda /mnt/backup -t usbfs
I just get a bunch of folders like 001 and 002. The disk is formatted as fat32.
Thanks

mount -t vfat /dev/sda1 /mnt/backup

Oh, whoops, I didn't notice that the device for the fat filesystem was actually /dev/sda5 (thank goodness for gparted). When I ran your command for that device, it worked
Thanks for the help

I've added a wiki entry with instructions on how to do this. I'm not sure if there is an easier way, than installing gparted, to find out the disk's structure, so any input is welcome
