I posted a message to this list stating what I did to get a USB key bootable.
It is message #7071 (http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/ts-7000/message/7071).
I would have expected the information in that message to have gotten you up
and running.

I didn't use loadUSBModules.sh. I seem to have that on my machine but it may
have been something I added at one point. It loads the same modules I load in
my own scripts.
One of the first questions to ask is whether the memory stick can be accessed
on another computer. If not, then you may just have a bad memory stick and not
a problem with the way your TS-7250 board is set up.
If the memory stick is good, the next thing is to verify the set up of your
system. Are you using the stock kernel provided by the board maker? Did you
change the start up scripts/configuration? Do you still have all the modules
needed installed on the machine? Have you verified that all the modules loaded
properly?
You can check if the modules are loaded by using lsmod and/or checking the
contents from dmesg. If in doubt, make sure the board won't run any script to
automatically load the needed modules on bootup, then reboot the board. Type
the commands to load the needed modules one at a time and verify that each one
loaded.
If one fails to load, you have identified your problem. You will need to find
out why it fails to load. Once you know you have all the modules loaded, you
should be able to load a memory stick. After plugging one in to a USB port,
you can use dmesg to verify that the stick was seen by the OS. If the OS
doesn't see the device, you won't be able to mount it.

If the OS does see the device, you can run the mount command. You don't state
whether you are trying to load a FAT16 or FAT32 formatted device but since you
are using 'vfat' in the mount command that shouldn't matter unless the vfat
module is missing or can't be loaded.
