USB Mass storage devices usually mount as /dev/sdXN (X is probably 'a' 
and N is probably '1').
Apparently 'fdisk -l' will show you all storage devices and the 
partitions they contain, so try this to see if /dev/sda1 or whatever exists.
You should also see various messages about the device loading if you 
type 'dmesg' after plugging it in.
You'll need various support in the kernel for it.
TRY: mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/mp3
