My issue is that when I plug my camera in it appears to conflict with my cdrom. My cdrom is a Hitachi DVD/CDRW IDE device but uses a scsi driver
What makes you think that? Did you tell it to?
I believe. Anyway when I plug my camera in, I get the automount to work with /dev/sda1 /mnt/camera auto noauto,owner,kudzu 0 0 appearing in my fstab. But I cannot actually access the camera, also if I power off
ls -l /dev/cdrom ? What is it pointing to? CDroms are not /dev/sd? they are /dev/scdX. The camera should be sda, if you have no other scsi decices. What does 'cat /proc/scsi/scsi' show when the camer is plugged in? Try these: /sbin/scsi_info /dev/sg0 /sbin/scsi_info /dev/sg1 /sbin/scsi_info /dev/scd0 /sbin/scsi_info /dev/sda
the camera then my cdrom entry disappears, then powering camera back on causes the return of my cdrom mount statement. But then I cannot access the cdrom. I am guessing that I need to assign my camera to sda2 or something of that nature but I do not know how to do this. Any insight is greatly appreciated. Below is a listing of my fstab without the camera plugged in and on: Camera Off:
Are you rebooting between these tests?
/dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom iso9660 noauto,owner,kudzu,ro 0 0
/dev/sda1 /mnt/camera auto noauto,owner,kudzu 0 0 /dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom iso9660 noauto,owner,kudzu,ro 0 0
Kudzu cna modify /etc/fstab. If you edit fstab and remove the word kudzu for an entry, kudzu won't touch it again. -Thomas
