Hi,
Is your usb stick FAT32 formatted?
You need to verify, that you usb stick is recognized correctly, so when you login via telnet into your box, run

dmesg | grep sd

Post the output.

The most usb sticks are formatted with a partition. That creates the device name /dev/sda1
Some vendors tend to format the USB stick directly without creating a partition, which will only create /dev/sda - Because the PirateBox scripts only react to sda1 they still wait to find the USB Stick :(

You can repartition your USB Stick, or
run
sed -i 's|ext_usbdevice="/dev/sda1"|ext_usbdevice="/dev/sda"|' /etc/ext.config
which will change the configuration. After running the command above, do a reboot
reboot & exit

And then cross the fingers ;)

regards Matthias
