3.Open terminal and type the following words
#bash 2.05  su
#mount /dev/sda1/ mnt / usbstorage

Have you or anyone else tried this on a c3000?

My understanding was that the Sharp ROM on the c3000 would not support USB Host.

I've tested this and it DOES work great with my HDD mp3 player!
But I am not sure if C3000 can detect devices that don't have a  internal battery, such as card reader,etc.

I tried this with my iriver140, but get
failed no such device or address.
Admittedly I used a connector to join two usb cable together.
