Hi

I am having problems mounting my galaxy S under linux

[ 1283.821385] sd 8:0:0:1: [sdc] Attached SCSI removable disk

but when i try
mount /dev/sdb /mnt/tmp/
i get
mount: /dev/sdb: unknown device

 and

dd if=/dev/sdb of=/dev/null count=100
dd: opening `/dev/sdb': No medium found

I found this
http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-usb/msg27378.html

but there doesn't seem to be an answer .... the flag  is set on my kernel

I a bit lost on this ..
