After reading many articles and reading how many users have no problems with digital cameras and Linux, I decided to spend some bucks. I have a USB mass storage device (memory stick reader)

Running RH8 I can see the device as scsi0. It does not mount.

How do I access it?
 
mkdir /mnt/camera

mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/camera

 
Thanks for the reply but I consider that to be part of a plug and play answer. I also didn't give enough information because I've posted in several forums looking for help and haven't found anything. Once I find the answer, I'll reply to all with the solution

I have the Pro III reader from atechflash.com running RH8. Under Window$, it mounts as 4 independent drives so that gave me a bone to follow.

It shows up as scsi0, sda

I tried sda1-7 (because it reads 7 types of media), mounts but no data present in the media. I assume it must be sda3 or sda4 but I try all of them to test all the combinations.

I tried adding:

UNUSUAL_DEV( 0x0aec,0x5010,0x0000,0xffff, "Atech", "Pro III MultiCard",
US_SC_SCSI, US_PR_BULK, NULL, US_FL_FIX_INQUIRY ),

to my unusual_devs.h file and still nothing.
