This is to help anyone trying to get their USB multicard reader working in
Fedora Core 2.

First, you must recompile the scsi module with "Probe all LUNs".


No you don't.  It is a module option.

Also, don't forget to report your info upstream so that device can be whitelisted.

For some reason, I've never been able to get the 'options scsi_mod max_scsi_luns=8' option to work. I get this message when I add it to /etc/modprobe.conf:

scsi_mod: Unknown parameter `max_scsi_luns'

However, I've gotten good results from a three-line script that
coaxes Linux to recognize the additional LUNs on my Y-E media reader:

echo >/proc/scsi/scsi "scsi add-single-device 0 0 0 1"
echo >/proc/scsi/scsi "scsi add-single-device 0 0 0 2"
echo >/proc/scsi/scsi "scsi add-single-device 0 0 0 3"

Here's my /proc/scsi/scsi after running the script:

Host: scsi0 Channel: 00 Id: 00 Lun: 00
 Vendor: Y-E DATA Model: CF Card Reader   Rev: 1.03
 Type:   Direct-Access                    ANSI SCSI revision: 02
Host: scsi0 Channel: 00 Id: 00 Lun: 01
 Vendor: Y-E DATA Model: SM Card Reader   Rev: 1.03
 Type:   Direct-Access                    ANSI SCSI revision: 02
Host: scsi0 Channel: 00 Id: 00 Lun: 02
 Vendor: Y-E DATA Model: MS Card Reader   Rev: 1.03
 Type:   Direct-Access                    ANSI SCSI revision: 02
Host: scsi0 Channel: 00 Id: 00 Lun: 03
 Vendor: Y-E DATA Model: SD Card Reader   Rev: 1.03
 Type:   Direct-Access                    ANSI SCSI revision: 02

The '0 0 0' in each of the lines of my script stands for scsi0, channel 0,
ID 0.  The last of the four numbers is the LUN number.  I run my script
from /etc/rc.d/rc.local.

someone else has said that with the 2.6 kernel you should use "max_luns" in /etc/modprobe.conf.
