Well, I almost killed myself trying to mount the Playstation Portable in my Kubuntu so I could use the wonderful homebrews it offers.
Well, case matters in PSP file naming so the correct /etc/fstab entry should be something like this:

/dev/sda1 /mnt/psp vfat user,shortname=winnt 0 0

I don't need to mention that the paths must be individualized according to user's preferences and needs.

Hope it helps someone.

I've had to refer to this a few times now, as my 5.10 installation has stopped auto-mounting my psp for some reason.

If you don't want to edit fstab, the one-time command to mount the PSP is:

sudo mount /dev/sda1 <insert mount directory here> -t vfat -o user,shortname=winnt
