Maybe you just need to mount the device.
Just plug it in then type:
lsblk -l -o vendor,model,name,size,type,fstype

This should allow you to identify the Android partitions.

To mount e.g. the partition names sdb2 just type:
mkdir -p /Android
mount /dev/sdb2 /Android

If that works, write a line for it in /etc/fstab

If not, please post back the output of the lsblk command.
Maybe the file file system used on the flash drive is uncommon?

Out of curiosity, are you running a genuine Slackware?

If that is the case and you never heard about Slackware, visit:

Best regards,

Didier
