@SSLMM you're missing the mount point. First do

mkdir /media/flash

@WhiteWolf that cable is fine (i think) but it still doesn't power the external device

Video's crappy, but remember to connect the stick directly after starting BME is shown.

It won't ever supply power to connected devices?

What cable is that? It doesn't look like a Nokia cable.

Actually, it does.

Please bear in mind this is a pre-alpha, it might not work for some of you.
Also, if you can, install sysklogd and provide a copy of /var/log/syslog.

Ok I'm still playing with this :D
I tried two flash drives:
no success, just power but not recognized by the system :( Will provide logs later.
Will try now a self powered HD.

btw:
is it normal that i get after "executing pcsuite-enable.sh":
sh: 0: unknown operand
