U've to add a number after sda

that means

mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/pen1
mount /dev/sda2 /mnt/pen2


1 for pendrive 1
1 for pendrive 2

cd /mnt <--//to go to mount directory
su <--//to become super user
Password: <--//give password
mkdir usbflash <--//create a directory in the mnt folder
mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/usbflash <--//this is the command to mount flash card reader
umount /dev/sda1 /mnt/usbflash <-- //to unmount the flash drive

insert usb
create a folder in /mnt

by giving mkdir usb

after that run hwbrowser command

u will get a screen

from that screen u can find out device name like sda1 or sda2 or sdb1


the run this command for mounting

mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/usb

and for unmounting

umount /mnt/usb
