Mount USB Flash Drive on Linux

Create directory /mnt/usbstick:

    mkdir /mnt/usbstick

Mount the usb device, in my case: it's /dev/sda1:

    mount -t vfat /dev/sda1 /mnt/usbstick

 And it's ready!!!

 

Sometimes when it is replugged, it needs to be remounted:

    umount /mnt/usbstick

     mount -t vfat /dev/sda1 /mnt/usbstick

Or add an alias in the .bashrc file in home directory (use ';' to combine two command lines).
