Appreciate any assistance!

Here is the fstab with the memory stick in after the errorHusse wrote:With the stick connected?
It's not there...
If connected something really blocks it
The error message mentions sdb1 - do you have sdb1 in /etc/fstab?

That has led the system to believe that the memory stick was a CD - look at fstabI did do my install from a memory stick, only have a CD drive for my Dell D410 so had to do it that went, went very smooth.
Your CD is at sdb1 and when the stick is inserted Mint always tries to mount it as the "first free disk" which in you case is sdb/dev/sdb1 /media/cdrom0 udf,iso9660 user,noauto,exec,utf8 0 0
The only thing to change is sdb1 to scd0/dev/scd0 /media/cdrom0 udf,iso9660 user,noauto,exec,utf8 0 0

Perfect! Thank you for the help!Husse wrote:The only thing to change is sdb1 to scd0
I did not think this would happen that's why I did not ask to see fstab immediately
