Oh yes, my processor is slow now. a df command shows this:
[root@localhost trade]# df

The JetFlash pen is assigned to sdf1. But do I have to assign it to sdc1
for it to work??
What consequences does this have?

Nope - but you have to use /dev/sdf instead of /dev/sdc if you want
fdisk to tell you anything about the drive. This is why you were
getting the unable to open /dev/sdc error message from fdisk.
