Here's what I did ... 1. As root, lsmod to see what mods are installed. You should look for: usb-storage usbcore scsi_mod sd_mod usb-uhci input sr_mod You probably don't need all of these, but that's what I've got in mine for my system, which does have SCSI HD's. 2. Edit /etc/fstab by making the entry: /dev/sdc1 /home/userMe/mnt/sony vfat noauto,user 0 0 3. Plug in the camera via the USB 4. Mount the disk with: mount /dev/sdc1 /home/userMe/mnt/sony -t vfat 5. Diagnose by checking: /var/log/messages /var/log/syslog /proc/bus/usb // this will show you what is being seen /proc/scsi // see what's here too That's all it took for me to get it working. HTH.
