The fstab is correctly done and the line added in. My other flash disk 
works perfectly. I plug it in and I can right click and mount.

Wwhich is why I'm just going to leave it. I can only assume its that 
particular disk and Fedora doesn't like it.  I have tried vfat  and 
msdos. Formatting it in linux btw did NOT work. The files were still on 
the disk when I checked it in Winxp
