I needed to load sd_mod with the argument max_luns=6 unplug your reader rmmod sd_mod (and any module that may be using it) modprobe sd_mod max_luns=4 reinsert your reader try mounting it. output of dmesg would also be useful. (it'll still be useful if the above series of commands works for you, as we can then add it to the blacklist and make it do this automatically). Dave
