There seems to be something missing. On my system (with the same CF Reader) 
it looks like this:

kernel: scsi0 : SCSI emulation for USB Mass Storage devices
kernel:   Vendor: SanDisk   Model: ImageMate II      Rev: 1.30
kernel:   Type:   Direct-Access                      ANSI SCSI revision: 02
kernel: Attached scsi removable disk sda at scsi0, channel 0, id 0, lun 0
kernel: SCSI device sda: 125441 512-byte hdwr sectors (64 MB)
kernel: sda: Write Protect is off
kernel:  sda: sda1
kernel: WARNING: USB Mass Storage data integrity not assured
kernel: USB Mass Storage device found at 3
kernel: USB Mass Storage support registered.

It's a SuSE kernel 2.4.16, but I guess any recent 2.4 kernel should do the 
same.

mount -t auto /dev/sda1 /mnt

Not neccessarily. It works without a fstab entry. However, having an entry in 
/etc/fstab makes it more comfortable.

Like you do with any other mounted filesystem. Make sure to unmount the 
device before you pull the CF card out of the reader.
