Camera - The last device I need to mount

[dwainsworld]

Hi,

I am trying to mount my camera - and it's the last one.

I am stuck at working out which device it is mounted as. I know from /var/log/messages that it is a USB device being emulated as a SCUSI device

but I am stuck as to which device to mount it as.

mount -t vfat/dev/????? /flash

Can someone help please?

hello,
odds are this is /dev/sda1 - here is a PET on dealing with this http://www.linuxjunior.org/cgi-bin/p...play&id=89


btw - have you tried gphoto?

[dwainsworld]

PB, I do have Gphoto, and when I press the detect button it gives me an error saying no devices found.

The Minolta dimage XT doesn't appear to be natively supported by Gphoto, and I have tried the Dimage V option but no-go. I could see no way that G Photo provided me a generic option to mount it either.

As the camera looks to be a standard file system I thought I would have a go at mounting it like a storage device.

I have already tried /dev/sda1 , /dev/sdb1 , /dev/sdc1

and received the old no such device type of error.

/dev/sda was correct PB - I was sure I had tried it already - but it worked just now.

Thanks all for your help - especially PB - and it's nearly time to say

GOODBYE MR GATES
