What did you put in fstab? You have 4 partitions on your memory-stick:
sda1 sda2 sda3 sda4
Try "fdisk -l /dev/hda" as root, to find the right one.
I guess you need an entry like:
/dev/sda1 /mnt/mem vfat defaults,user,exec,noauto 0 0
you can try it by hand first:
mkdir /mnt/sda1 /mnt/sda2 /mnt/sda3 /mnt/sda4
mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/sda1
mount /dev/sda2 /mnt/sda2
mount /dev/sda3 /mnt/sda3
mount /dev/sda4 /mnt/sda4
Have a look which one is the right one.

This is mainly an issue of the kernel as all distros basically have
the same kernel ...
What kind of filesystem are you using on hda1?
