Hey,
Thanks a lot! I typed "lsmod" to see which modules were loaded. I knew
that "usb-storage" had to be loaded. Also,
usbcore, and usb-uhci had to be loaded. I did "modprobe" on each of
them, none of them were loaded. I had first modprobe load usb-storage,
but I did not know about usb-storage and usb-uhci.
After I did modprobe, I did "/sbin/lsmod" and saw all three modules.
Then I did the famous "mount -t vfat /dev/sda1 /mnt/usbdrive", bang.
