Default USB 2.0 device won't mount on x86

Hi All,

I am running Solaris 9 4/03 on a Toshiba TE2100 laptop. I can
successfully mount and use my Apacer 256MB USB 1.1 flash ram device on
my laptop, but I cannot mount my Apacer 64MB USB 2.0 flash ram device.

The syntax that I am using is:

mount -F pcfs /dev/dsk/c2t0d0p0:1 /mnt

The error message that I receive is:

mount: /dev/dsk/c2t0d0p0:1 is not a DOS filesystem.

I am aware of the fact that the ":1" in the special device denotes the
DOS partition table to use. I have also tried ":2", ":3", ":4" and
":c". I am fairly sure that it HAS been formatted as a DOS partition
as it works fine on my XP box, and a "dd if=/dev/dsk/c2t0d0p0" show
"MSDOS5.0" along with a whole lot of garbage. I am also aware of the
fact that Solaris currently only supports USB 1.1. That's fine - I'd
just like to get this thing working as it is, if possible

If it helps, here is the output from "prtconf -Dv":
