Hi Scott;

Does this mean the automount system failed or you could not manually mount 
the drive?  I don't have the automounter system properly configured so 
automounting fails (any help on this would be appreciated).

Did you check the messages file, or dmesg, to see if the system detected 
the drive being inserted?  Can you manually create a mount point and then 
mount the drive?

It does work slightly better if the USB stick is installed before the boot 
process begins.  In this case the mount point is created and added to the 
/etc/fstab file  It still requires that you manually mount the disk, but 
you don't need to create the mount point.
