I have done modprobe usb-storage and mounting returns
this:

mount -t vfat /dev/sda1 /media/camera
mount: special device /dev/sda1 does not exist

I have tried other mount points too: /dev/sda
/dev/sda2 /dev/sdb, along with the appropriate fstab
changes, and nothing has worked yet.

It was suggested to do MAKEDEV /dev/sda1 here's the
results of that attempt:

MAKEDEV /dev/sda1
don't know how to make device "/dev/sda1"

Here's some additional information from harddrake
under other devices:

Vendor: Microtech

Model: CameraMate SmartMedia and CompactFlash reader

Kernel Module: unknown

Bus Type: USB

Informations: This device hasn't been identified by
HardDrake, please send `/proc/bus/*' files and this
device ID `07af0006' to: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

>From what I have read so far it seems that some people
have had luck doing "modprobe usb-storage" and then
entering #mount -t vfat /dev/sda1 /mnt/whatever. So
far I have not had luck doing this. I appreciate the
assistance given so far, and it appears others are
hoping that this issue can be resolved.
Thanks to all who have helped with this.
