use fdisk to list all the drives your OS can see:
then simply mount the one you need.
$ sudo fdisk -l
$ sudo mount /dev/sdb1 /mnt/usb
in case you get the error: "special device does not exist"
it is most probably due to an error on the usb device, try formatting it may solve.
Tip: to format a usb drive, enter the followint command
$ mkfs.vfat -n "NEW_DRIVE_NAME" -I /dev/sdx1(*) replace
/dev/sdx1 with the device name of your pendrive (list all the drives using fdisk -l )
