Re: USB camera mount

I may have mislead you on a couple of points.  First, my system has a
real SCSI disk which is sda1 so my camera had to be sdb1.  Second,
someone told me and I assume it is correct that /mnt is meant to be used
as an auxilliary mount point for temporary mounts.  For example, my
cdrom is normally mounted at /cdrom but if I need to execute a program
from a cd, I would mount it at /mnt with exec.  I believe the following
will work for you:

1. Add /dev/sda1 /camera vfat ro,users,noauto 0 0 to /etc/fstab

2. md /camera

3. mount /camera

4. ls /camera to begin the search for the jpeg files.  Mine were in a
sub-directory
Good luck,

Tom

Unfortunately /dev/sda1 is not the mount point on my system. Thus, the above procedure fails :-( I am wondering if it is possible to map 1,0,0 from the SCSIBUS to a device file? If so, how is this done? If the SCSIBUS recognises the device, can I assume that I won't need to alter any kernel source file? (This is something I've never ventured into before).

TIA, Tim
