Another usb memory-stick question

I can get mine to mount O.K., but it makes the CPU run full bore, and the
only way to stop it is to reboot.  According to top, kdeinit is using it
up.  Using Mandrake 10.1 on a 1.8 GHz Athlon, kernel 2.6.8.1-12mdk.  There
is an upgrade for the kernel available, but this one is designed for
Win4Lin, and is the latest according to them.

Any possibility it's the "mount CD's automatically" stuff?

 
 
 

1. elementary usb memory stick question

I'm trying to mount a usb memory stick. I find that when the fstab
line has:

  /dev/sdd     /media/usb-key    usbfs    ro,user  0 0

I can access the stick to see two directories, 001 and 002, and two
files, devices and drivers. However, I can't access the stick.

When I use in fstab:

  /dev/sdd     /media/usb-key    vfat    ro,user  0 0

I get
        $ sudo mount -t vfat /dev/sdd /media/usb-key
        mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sdd,
                missing codepage or other wrror
                In some cases useful info is found in syslot - try
                dmesg | tail or so

dmesg reports:

        $ dmesg | tail
        Device 08:30 not ready.
         I/O error: dev 08:30, sector 8
        Device 08:30 not ready.
         I/O error: dev 08:30, sector 16
        Device 08:30 not ready.

        Device 08:30 not ready.
         I/O error: dev 08:30, sector 0
        FAT: unable to read boot sector
        ...
