Hi All I am not sure if this is the right forum to ask... but it seems like the right first step.
I am running Debian 4.0 with custom built 2.6.20.6 kernel. I have a USB media reader, vendor ID: 0x058f, Prduct ID: 0x6362, whic is a CF/MMC/SD/SM) etc reader that normally shows up as a SCSI device. I am seeing some behavior that puzzles me: when I attached this device via USB to a newly booted system it's detected and all is well, so long as the media card is in the reader at the time. As expected the usb-storage module and sd-mod load, devices are scanned, partitions are found and so on. If I attached it without any media cards in it, or I have unmounted and removed a media cerd from the reader, it shows up as a bunch of SCSI removable devices (sda, sdb, sdc, sdd) , but inserting a card into the reader does not result in a mountable SCSI device, even if I know which of them i need to mount. It seems that after first insert, there is no rescanning of the devices. So my question is: is there a way, using hotplug or udev or otherwise to: a) scan the USB card reader and detect media insertion b) scan the media and detect partitoons, etc c) NOT runa daemon tnat auto-mounts them for me - I do not want to auto mount the devices, i just want to know when they are inserted...
