Hi micky

Did you mount it?

fdisk -l

Find the usb drive in the output. This gets a little complex because you may have multiple partitions - lets assume you dont and lets assume your drive is identified as:
/dev/sdb

make a directory somewhere:
mkdir /usbstick

Mount the drive you identified above:
mount -t vfat /dev/sdb1 /usbstick

Where sdb is the drive you identified and 1 is the partition you wish to mount. If your usb drive is something other than vfat then you need to change the filesystem type.

Hi micky

Based off that screenshot the usb is /dev/sdb and it has 4 partitions (1/2/3/4).

I am not 100% certain what you are expecting to be on your usb disc but it looks to me like its currently formatted as a boot drive of some kind. The 2 partitions /dev/sdb2 and /dev/sdb4 look like efi boot partitions.

What happens if you plug the usb drive into a windows / osx host?

cheers

Mike

Hello,
thanks for the info the problem was the USB stick. With normal USB stick does not work
but with USB 3.0 it works great.
Thank you
