Expected results:

The file should have opened.  It works fine on the desktop.

Are you sure about that path? Shouldn't it be file:///usb0-disk0/index.html? I routinely use local pages on file:///data/local just fine

Comment 2

[acr]

I also tried file:///usb0-disk0/index.html with the same result.

File not found.
Firefox can't find the file at /usr0-disk0/index.html

If you navigate to file:/// is usr0-disk0 listed? I think Naioki has one of these he can check too.

Comment 4

Success!

This worked
file:///storage/usb0-disk0/index.html


This did not
file:///usbdrive/
file:///mnt

yes, it looks like on the Toshiba Thrive the usb disk is located at 
file:///storage/usb0-disk0.

Using Astro, the directory is located there so I don't believe that this is a Fennec bug
