The "blkid" command will give you more info about the device
sudo blkid -p /dev/sdb
will show you the partition type ( like PTTYPE="dos" ), if there is one.
sudo blkid -p /dev/sdb1
will show you the filesystem type of partition 1
/dev/sdd1: LABEL="WD1000" UUID="694b6f8b-42e6-49e8-be51-5806e5e315e9"
SEC_TYPE="ext2" VERSION="1.0" TYPE="ext3" USAGE="filesystem"
PART_ENTRY_SCHEME="dos" PART_ENTRY_TYPE="0x83" PART_ENTRY_NUMBER="1"
try
sudo mount /dev/sdb1 /mnt/myusb
The -t argument takes a filesystem type - "vfat" is very commonly used
on usb devices, so try
sudo mount -t vfat /dev/sdb1 /mnt/myusb
But mount should figure this out automagically.
