You say yours is NOT there - stupid question, but you do have media in the reader, right? I have a multi-card reader and it uses /dev/sda through /dev/sdd, and sometimes things are on /dev/sdx1 and sometimes on /dev/sdx2 and so on. If you have a multi-card reader, like mine, perhaps you have not enabled in the SCSI part of the kernel config the part that says something to the effect of "probe all LUNs." Without this it'll never see below /dev/sda, so sdb and sdc and so on never get found. There's BOUND to be a way to predict where the media will show up based on scsibus1: 1,0,0 - but I have yet to find a better way than to just do: mount /dev/sda1 /home/whatever <enter> mount /dev/sdb1 /home/whatever <enter> mount /dev/sdc1 /home/whatever <enter> mount /dev/sda2 /home/whatever <enter> ... until I get a "hit." No doubt since I've opened my fat yap, someone will tell us BOTH the Debian Way and we'll BOTH learn something.
