It gives me an error saying the file
system type must be specified.



I did:



Mount t vfat /dev/sdb /mnt/flash



And it says bad block



Could the file system on this CF device be
proprietary?



Its from a camera.

You get the device that is created by looking at the dmesg output
after you plugin the flash. I'm assuming you have all options set in
your kernel the right way.

After that, you mount it normally. Mine can only be mounted using the
first (and only) partition, so if, for example, /dev/sda doesn't work,
try /dev/sda1.

Good luck,

Don't forget to enter in your /etc/fstab:
===
/dev/sda/mnt/flashauto,vfat,msdos
noauto,user,noatime 0 0

or replace /dev/sda with /dev/sda1, if your CF has been partitioned

depends on the interface

is it a USB/PCMCIA/builtin CF reader?

because they all have different ways of accessing. The most popular is the usb 
device, so you will need the usb-storage module and associated libraries

The device should come up as /dev/sd[a,b,c...] (depending on how many usb

Neither /dev/sda nor /dev/sda1 are defined on my system? What package is
responsible for defining them.

Perhaps you don't have SCSI support built into your kernel. You need the
USB mass storage (if it's via USB) and SCSI emulation support options.
Also, make sure you select the option pertaining to probing multiple
LUNs which will look at some devices like multi-card readers and
recognize that they have more than one device in them like my Lexar
reader does.

I didn't catch a post or two for this thread but I hope this helps :)

This sounds like it. I've made the requisite changes, and I expect that

on my system it is /dev/uba1, just don't ask me why ;)

try a ls -tlr /dev/ and it will give you the directory listing of /dev
reverse sorted by time, so the last lines will be the most recent
changes to the /dev tree, most probably the last line will be your device.

Hope this helps
