Normally the usb drives are considered as scsi drives. so try for
example /dev/sda1, /dev/sdb1 
For example try a commandline like that :
mount -t usbfs /dev:sda1 /mnt
to mount your usb drive on /mnt
If it doesn't work try to replace /dev/sda1 by /dev/sdb1 or others ...

I know only a commandline to obtain the free space on a partition. the
command is as follow :
df -kh /dev/hda1 
Of course it's only an example and it is necessary that you replace
/dev/hda1 by the good partition.
before running this command, the partition to check must be mounted.
wit this commandline you obtain the total space on the partition, the
written space and the free space.
