I think you have to mount with "mount -o rw /dev/sda1 /mnt/host", if sda1 is 
found. My sda1 was not found by TS-7800 and I wrote "mknod /dev/sda1 b 8 1" to 
get it there (I guess parameters can be different with other USB memory sticks, 
but it's worth a try). If your USB flash filesystem is ext2/ext3, there should 
be no problem. Else, you may have to use -t option

  mount -t [filesystem type] -o rw /dev/sda1 /mnt/host

Busybox (initial console) is not the kernel.
