I've got the same flashcard reader, it worked fine on MDK 9.1 but is a bit 
tempermental on Mepis (Debian), my fstab looks like this:

# Dynamic entries
/dev/sda1 /mnt/sda1 vfat noauto,users,exec,umask=000 0 0

(basically it won't umount and remount cards when changed - umount and mounts 
fine at boot time

any ideas how to amend this for Debian??

does it require a static entry in fstab, or could I copy my previous MDK fstab 
entry??
