The block device partition will be something like /dev/sdb1 or
/dev/sdc1, it depends on how
many disks you have at the host.
If you can use the sub key with the host, go to a terminal window and type
$ mount
one of the lines will be have, among other things:
/dev/sdb1 /media/usbkey.
What comes after dev is the name you need, /media/usbkey is where the
usb key files are
at the host, it will be different for you.
