Have you tried running fdisk on it? Does it see the SD chip? Have you
googled for an answer?
If you have the kernel source, I don't, you might look through the
Documentation directory for some mention of SD cards. There may be a
kernel option for them(?). I have never tried reading SD cards
myself.
BTW Take a look at the Netiquette thread. I am subscribed to this
list and have no need of a Cc. Thanks
