I had a vendor give me a USB memory stick as a promotional giveaway
yesterday. Kind of amazing theat they have gotten cheap enough for this.

In any case, I pluged it into my laptop with STABLE on it (cvsuped last
weekend). It recognized the device, and told me it was a generic USB
storage deviec. 

How can I mount this device? 

Also, when I unplug it I get a panic. I do have, what I think are, the
correct defines in my kernel config.

What might I be doing wrong?
