As a result of what you have done, you should see the contents of your camera
on /etc/sda1 (unless you already have scsi devices when it may be something
different.
mount -t msdos /dev/sda1 /camera
My setup is slightly different, I have a smartmedia card reader which I have
plugged the smartmedia card from my camera in to it - but I believe that many
camera models do the same.
In my case the jpeg images are stored in a subdirectory on this device
dcim/100olymp - I think most cameras should use dcim followed by some other
directory.
