I have absolutely no idea how to set up my usb pen drive to work with gentoo. I've looked around but I'm not sure how I need to be configuring /etc/fstab, ivman, and my kernel. I'm using udev. I have USBFS compiled in, and this in my /etc/fstab:

Code:

none                    /proc/bus/usb   usbfs           defaults           0 0


Some old forum posts recommended trying

Code:

mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/pendrive


But that reports that /dev/sda1 is not a valid block device.

Can someone help me out or provide a link in the right direction?
