Hello,

This works quite well. However, I have had a some little problem  with 
mine. Now it works fine. Or at least the last time I tried that is ....

Now a second ago.
I could mount it again...

Of course the following information might depend on the usb stick.
But I suppose that it should work for most usb sticks.
well for mounting it you only need to mount it:

add at the end of fstab:
    /dev/sda1       /mnt/usbstick   auto noauto,user 0 0

or mount it as vfat.

In mine, you then only need to copy the files in the right directory.
in my case:

I have  directories: ( this might be really different depending on 
manufacturers... I guess):
 voice and music
plus some property file ".dat".

Hope this helps...

Julien

P.S: It was at the beginning a bit of the pain in the ass. Becasue the 
partition tables of the usb sticks were not really compatible with the 
partitions. So I  had some problem with it.
