Re: USB mass storage mapping problem



You can't mount the scsi generic (sg) device; you need to map the
associated disk.  Assuming the LITE-ON device from your sg_scan is a scsi
removable (sr) device such as a CD-ROM, your SD reader should be sda. You
can check this with:

fdisk /dev/sda

to make sure you're right. If so, you can:

mount -tvfat -oumask=0000 /dev/sda1 /mnt/sdcard

Cheers,
ap
