Hello list,

A week ago I bought a Minolta e203 digital camera and I'm trying to get it to play 
nice with my Linux system (with Windows 98 on this machine it's no problem, neither 
with the Windows 2000 machine at work). As the previous model (DImage 2330) en the 
smaller brother (e201) are reported to work, I thought the e203 would work too, a 
little mistake. The biggest difference is that the e203 uses Secure Digital cards, 
instead of the Compact Flash from the other two models. 

I'm trying this on a Redhat 7.2 system and a newly compiled 2.4.18 kernel (from a 
Redhat .config). Everything goes well, up to trying to mount it as a SCSI drive 
(/dev/sda, no partitions available), then I get:

/etc/fstab line:
/dev/sda        /mnt/camera     vfat    noauto,user     0 0

[root@Ferrenzo root]# mount /mnt/camera/
mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sda,
       or too many mounted file systems

Does anyone have an idea? As right now I'm totally lost. I can't find anything on the 
internet, appart from that you have to use usb-storage and one other user reporting 
the same on a newsgroup.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!

Cheers!
