Sda1 is always juat an example. if you already have sda hard drive then your flash drive becomes sdb, etc. But on some syatems it could even read hd0 1.2.etc But why isn't your DE just automounting the media?
The main purpose is to run some proprietary bullshit so the Linux installs are pretty minimal. They gave us step by step guides to do things but it always ends up with me and Google.
