With the debian hotplug package installed. I have done no setup other than manually mounting /dev/sda1 with the -t msdos command (not got around to an fstab entry yet). I am a little worried about the interaction with ide-scsi (you may remember a thread on here where I was unable to find out when it gets loaded - I still haven't cracked that one - so its manually removed). > I have a SanDisk CompactFlash reader that > works, but I'm not sure their SmartMedia reader does (only some of their > models are USB Mass Storage compatible).

Yes I unmounted the card and then did a mkfs -t msdos /dev/sda1 followed but a mount, and then mkdir -p /mnt/dcim/100olymp (where /mnt is the mount point) copied an edited jpeg image back to that directory. When I unmounted it, and then put the smartmedia back in the camera I was able to see the file from the cameras little lcd screen. (It was the wrong size - can't remember what editiing I did on it) What was more fun, was that I also was able to format the media as a ext2 filesystem and then create files and directories on it. - -- Alan Chandler [EMAIL PROTECTED] -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.0 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQE9oemquFHxcV2FFoIRAlHzAJ4iCXhPGKZpqMPpJOWwD5MUZ1k0swCguH/t xE8wjjNmc2Lp35bVjMRcpg0= =LaFT -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
