I will greatly appreciate help in the matter of how to make a USB flash crad reader (n-in-one variety) work in Fedora-2, specifically when the card reader/witer is connected throgh a USB hub.
Thanking you in advance for your help.
Sheo:
Here's how I did it on my FC2 box -- now keep in mind that I'm connecting to one of the USB ports on the box itself, not an external hub.
1. as root, mkdir /mnt/flash
2. add this line to /etc/fstab:
/dev/sda1 /mnt/flash vfat noauto,user 0 0
3. rebooted (not sure if this reboot is necessary or not, though)
4. plug in compact flash card reader
5. open a terminal, and type this: mount /mnt/flash
6. Then I can cd /mnt/flash and view the contents of my card! Don't forget to umount /mnt/flash prior to disconnecting the reader.
If you get some sort of error, try running modprobe usb-storage.
Hope this helps, Clint
