Through further searching I found. cd into the current directory- (# home/user/MyDocs/Root/mnt/initfs/lib/modules/current/) and load the sd and usb modules. (# insmod /mnt/initfs/lib/modules/current/sd_mod.ko) etc. After installing the sd,scsi and usb modules the usb device will be detected in xterm as sda1 when you enter command, (# dmesg) if you are in usb host mode and have your device connected with a powered usb hub. Then (# mkdir /media/mp3player) or whatever you want to call it and (# mount -t vfat /dev/sda1 /media/mp3player -rw). That's all it takes and it works! You can also create a link in your file manager with: (# ln -s /media/mp3player /home/user/MyDocs/mp3player). Hope this helps someone and saves a lot of searching.
