After plugging it in, use 'dmesg' to see the device name that was just 
added and mount it wherever you want.  Maybe you should think about 
switching to Centos 5 (or 6 soon...) which should automount on the desktop.

Fat32 is the only thing that will 'just work' across the different OS's 
and it is OK unless you are handling files >4GB.  But don't you have a 
network for that sort of thing?
