unless you mention the make and model and what error messages you are getting, it is impossible to help

Usb pen drives dont require special drivers in linux. in Debian modprobe usbcore, uhci_hcd, ehci_hcd and usbstorage mount /dev/sda1 /mnt. u will find your files in /mnt
u might have to do
mount -t vfat /dev/sda1 /mnt
or
mount -t auto /dev/sda1 /mnt
and ya plz mention ur OS, pen drive make and some reference to what kind of error ur getting... and have you got driver for linux on ur CD(great!!! by the way very few vendors do that), plz mention details of this driver that u have....

from the root console use cmd "tail -f /var/log/messages" . ... press enter a few times so you know where the new messaegs will start ....
insert your pen drive . it should give you things like /dev/sda1 or /dev/sda2 or watever .... then take that device name and mount it using
mount /dev/sda1 /mnt
i do know some of the drives dont work but never seen a driver even for other popular OS. you can paste those messages to the list . so that ppl can suggest you something further incase this doesnt work

Ubuntu 5.10 live can automatically mounts a pen drive and even shows it on the desktop as a hdd icon. Till you get the drivers for RedHat, you can run ubuntu live, mount the hdd partitions and transfer data. BTW FC3 and 4 can mount the drive but it cannot read its contents.

If ubuntu can read the contents why not RHEL? Can a look at fstab of ubuntu live help?

I tried it in FC3 and 4. It is available in /media/... but its window opens blank. Ubuntu directly displays the files. I did not dig deep into the fstab, though I will observe it next time.

Suse 9.2 and 9.3 have always detected usb pendrives. I use them very often. I would be suprised if RedHat does not auto detect it. (unless you have an older version of RHEL). When inserted, the drives automatically shows up in /mnt or in /media as a folder and when you cd to the folder, it will show all your files. If it detects in correctly, it will show them as read only files (happened only once to me).
BTW, mostly we have used pendrives from transcend. Also used IBM pendrives, both worked fine (autodetected)
