Nino, etc,

This brings up a question, the answer to which I should know. I would go
to Staples for convenience. Now, I know how I would format the fd so that
the Staples Print Desk would know what to do. How should I format a thumb
drive? How do I look at it? mount sd0, then ls sdo? Or what?

Come to think of it, when I plugged in the fd (using USB 2.0, it didn't
install, the way I would expect. Hunh!?
