Dear all,

I have a problem with mounting the SD cards formatted on the digital
camera on my Linux BOX. But I am able to mount and access the same
devices on WinXP.
I think someone might have faced the same problem. Did u find some
solution to this? Please convey if any.

When I have tried to find the fs type SD card formatted in camera.
I found it to be FAT12. Does the linux kernel have the support for FAT12
fs?
I suppose it does. But, why am I not able to mount the device.

Dear Mukund JB:

 What did you do that did not work?
I have difficulty also, from time to time, mounting my
Compact Flash device using a CF->USB media reader.

 You may simply be missing the needed drivers.  :-|

I have 'usb-storage' listed when I:
# lsmod

 I first insert the memory device onto the reader.
 Then connect the USB cable to my computer.
# tail -f /var/log/messages

Then I:

# mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/hd

# df -T

To show mounted filesystems and types.
Mine shows type 'vfat' for my Compact Flash -> USB device.

# tail -f /var/log/messages

To show errors
