You can always mount it manually...

Make a mountpoint somewhere in /mnt, something like "mkdir /mnt/usb" for example, and then just mount it using the mount command. You might need to look up the /dev name of the usb stick using "fdisk -l" command, once you know what it is just do "mount /dev/sd?? /mnt/usb".

All the commands must be issued as root, by the way.

You also might need to specify the usb stick filesystem type -- if it's fat the command would look like this, for example: "mount -t vfat /dev/sd?? /mnt/usb"
