The flash is not partitioned and I can mount it and rw as a user on
another box. Also I have the same problems using another flash drive.
The second box is runnig lenny and the result of fdisk -l /dev/sda is:

Units = cylinders of 2031616 bytes, blocks of 1024 bytes, counting from

Using a different usb flash (8g vs 4g) drive on the lenny box gives the
following:
Disk /dev/sda: 1022 cylinders, 247 heads, 62 sectors/track
Warning: The partition table looks like it was made
for C/H/S=*/20/16 (instead of 1022/247/62).
For this listing I'll assume that geometry.

/dev/sda3 0 - 0 0 0 Empty
/dev/sda4 0 - 0 0 0 Empty
Both drives are made by lexar and have never been formatted so they come
with vfat.
