In case you haven't solved this yet, here is a post from a couple of months ago which pretty well covers it: <snip> Problem: You have a digital camera and a USB card reader....PNY or other brand and would like to have it defined at bootup. Solution: put a "card" in the reader that has at least 1 image on it or is formated, and reboot the 'puter. Login and carefully read the /var/log/messages file......near the end of it. An example of what you're looking for is below, which is what the system "sees" the card reader as. Apr 9 23:37:40 linux kernel: Attached scsi removable disk sdc at scsi3, channel 0, id 0, lun 0 Apr 9 23:37:40 linux kernel: SCSI device sdc: 125185 512-byte hdwr sectors (64 MB) Apr 9 23:37:40 linux kernel: sdc: Write Protect is off Apr 9 23:37:40 linux kernel: sdc: sdc1 Apr 9 23:37:40 linux kernel: WARNING: USB Mass Storage data integrity not assured Note that on this box, it's sdc1. Make a mount point of your choice. In my case, it's /local2/coolpix, which is on an 18.3G SCSI drive as /local2. Ok....now you're ready to add a line in /etc/fstab, which in my file is: /dev/sdc1 /local2/coolpix vfat ro,noauto,user,exec 0 0 Reboot, and in KDE2.2.2 or KDE3.0, you'll have an icon on your desktop for the reader. </snip> Hope that helps!
