RE: [crisos] USB Drive Partition

Thanks.  I'm getting close.  I can do everything in the example except mount
the drive - it fails.  See below:

root@CrisOs:~# df -h

root@CrisOs:~# mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/usbdrive
mount: mounting /dev/sda1 on /mnt/usbdrive failed
root@CrisOs:~#

Any idea what I'm doing wrong?

This should be fdisk /dev/sda not sda1
