Tried that, but no luck it complains that /dev/sda1 is not a valid device.

However, I was able to format the pendrive under Windoze and then put a text 
file on it from Linux and see it, so I'm thinking that I've got the 
functionality I need.

I'm also assuming that my difficulties with /dev/sda1 are probably due to the 
XXX_MULTI_LUN issue in the RedHat kernel config, but as I am willing to go with 
one device for now, I can live with that.


Thanks to all for your help, pointers, and so forth.  And I'd like to point out 
that no liberals or conservatives were harmed in the making of this technical 
problem!
