According to the dmesg output you posted earlier, your memory stick is
not partitioned.  This is ok, some are, some are not.  You can confirm
this by taking a look at /proc/partitions when it is inserted, or the
output of "fdisk -l".  So, only getting /dev/plextor_memstick is
probably correct, and you should mount that, not plextor_memstick1.
