I would however still like to know the mount command syntax to use if I do not know the file system on it and it hasn't already been mounted via the fstab file.
The filesystem type "auto" tells the mount command to look in the superblock of the filesystem and attempt to figure out what type it is. According to the manpage for "mount", it may be useful for user-mounted floppies. See that manpage for more details. Paul Abrahams
