One thing to check is whether there is actually a partition table on the 
device.

  fdisk -l /dev/scsi/host0/bus0/target0/lun0

or similar should help here.

You could also try other filesystem types for instances -t msdos
I've seen some USBsticks with large block sizes i.e. 2048 instead
of the usual 512. This may cause problems. The largest Partition
size for a FAT file system is 2GB. Dunno about VFAT.
