storage question

[vhg119]

my memory stick is a scsi disk on a usb bus.. so i've been told by the technician at www.emperorlinux.com (http://www.emperorlinux.com) :

> i'm running a sony vaio pcg-z505he and i cannot get my memory stick to
work.

the mem-stick is standard kernel stuff (its a SCSI disk on the USB bus), see
/var/log/messages...

if so... which drivers would i have to modprobe? to get it working?

just wanted to add that lspci lists it as:
00:0d.0 FLASH memory: Sony Corporation Memory Stic Controller (rev 01)

laptop: sony vaio pcg-z505he
distro: Redhat 7.2 stock kernel

pcmcia cdrom works fine.
usb floppy drive works fine.
jog dial works fine.
sound and everything else except the winmodem and memstick works fine.

when i try to 'mount -t vfat /dev/sda1 /mnt/memstick' it says 'mount: /dev/sda1: unknown device'
