Can anybody help me to mount an USB-Stick on Linux with a -nogui patch?
I've found [shell] which looks like it should do the trick. However I'm not too much of a Linux Console guy.
I need to be able to save patch data on a stick that is to be mounted after pd has started.
So my question is:
a) what's the command line to mount the drive?
b) how can I find out what the name of the drive is so I can save to it?
Any help is very much appreciated!

Will it always be the same stick? Then it's probably easier to set up automatic mounting similar to the procedure described here: http://www.debian-administration.org/articles/127 and in a lot of other places search engines can find for you.
In the directory /dev/disk/ you will find various subdirectories which will get filled with device files for your stick. Personally I like the /dev/disk/by-id/ format most. For example my MP3-Player shows up there as:
/dev/disk/by-id/usb-Meizu_MiniPlayer_0000000000000
To mount it just use:
$ mount -t vfat /dev/disk/by-id/usb-Meizu_MiniPlayer_0000000000000 /media/stick
or similar.
