Do you have a flash card in there? If not, the READ CAPACITY will fail and there's really not much you can do with it.
Make sure there is a memory card of come sort in there.
BTW, I don't know if anyone has mentioned it but when dealing with USB devices "devlabel" is your friend. Once you figure out the device name the first time use "devlabel" to label it so you can mount it by a special symlink instead of the real device which is likely to change.
Read the man page, it's pretty simple.
Ok, did that. It didn't help though.
devlabel add -d /dev/sda1 -s /smartcardreader
" /dev/sda1 does not exist. Failure. Since this device does not exist, it did not return an identifier. "
Practically the same message was returned for /dev/sda.
Could it be a problem that it contains 6 containers for different kinds of smartcards?
