Works OK for me. But it seems like I recall that the order of devices
changed on me sometime. Might show up as /dev/sdb1, or /dev/sdc1, etc.
Install lsscsi, it can help you find your devices with little effort.
$ lsscsi
[1:0:0:0] disk SPRING MultiCard Slot A 0100 /dev/sda
[1:0:0:1] disk SPRING MultiCard Slot D 0100 /dev/sdb
[1:0:0:2] disk SPRING MultiCard Slot S 0100 /dev/sdc
[1:0:0:3] disk SPRING MultiCard Slot M 0100 /dev/sdd
[7:0:0:0] disk LEXAR JUMPDRIVE 1000 /dev/sde
