A quick workaround - incase it still is not working for you - mount as a
~  loop device

sudo mount -o loop /dev/sda1 /media/flash

| Adding option "noatime" is advised to save wear-and-tear on the bits
in

CentOS

| automagically in fstab after plugging in my key:
|
| /dev/sda                /media/PHIL_S_KEY       vfat   \
| pamconsole,exec,noauto,iocharset=utf8,noatime,sync,managed 0 0
|
| CentOS 4 should act similarly.
