PEBKAC.
I needed the device name and couldn't sort it out. The tail command in dmesg
gave me the device name.
Unfortunately I still couldn't mount it. I suspect more PEBKAC given the
amount of sleep that I have had recently!
I have solved the problem for now with a little lateral thinking. I took the
memory card out of the device and put it in a card reader. I have now copied
two more books (audio files of) for a very long train journey. Life was
definitely easier when I could read actual books, but I do now have the
advantage of being able to "read" and watch the scenery go by at the same
time. :-)
I'll come back to this when I get back next weekend. Having once had it
mounted, albeit by accident, I know it can be done.
So any further ideas you have will be very gratefully received, but not acted
on for 9 days!
