Yesterday it worked, now it doesn't.

# /etc/fstab: static file system information.
#
# <file system> <mount point>   <type>  <options>       <dump>  <pass>
proc            /proc           proc    defaults        0       0
/dev/hdc7       /               ext3    defaults,errors=remount-ro 0       1
/dev/hdc6       none            swap    sw              0       0
/dev/hda        /mnt/cdrom0   iso9660 ro,user,noauto  0       0
/dev/sda1       /mnt/usb0       auto    defaults,user   0       0
/dev/sdb1       /mnt/usb1       auto    defaults,user   0       0

my /etc/filesystems is still fine...
.oO(draco at nymph ~) cat /etc/filesystems 
vfat
ext2
iso9660


but I still get this:
.oO(draco at nymph ~) mount /mnt/usb0
mount: I could not determine the filesystem type, and none was specified

note the lack of "sda1" or anything of that sort
This is with 2 USB devices (both of which worked yesterday) plugged in :-(

any assistance anyone?

Thanks,
