I have an SD card (for a Palm Tungsten) that I would like to mount in my card reader to put music on. I used to be able to do it, but now I can't. The SD card in my 4-way reader is /dev/sdb. I tried "mount /dev/sdb /media/sdb" and I get unknow filesystem type. I've tried vfat and smbfs but those don't work either.
Try mount /dev/sdb1 /media/sdb where sdb1 (or sda1, or something else) should be specified as found in tail /var/log/messages right after plugging the usb-device.
