Isn't that what I've been doing?

I tried with and without the 1 GB and the 8 GB geeksticks, singly and in combination, and gained nothing.

I'm going to try booting to puppy with both in, and launch gparted; maybe that will help check what this machine is calling which drive.

-- simply by hitting ctrl-P each time I get gparted to show info about a different "device"; it does give all different names with both thumb sticks and the SD card inserted.

But I'm drawing a blank on posting. For instance, do I have to attach each one (assuming I do take them successfully) as I take it? Or can I take several and attach them all? Am I going to be able to caption each? (I want to mention what I think each screenshot shows.)
