Used to be, I'd stick the my camera's SD card into the all-in-one card |
| 2 |
reader, and it would show up as /dev/sdb (my SATA hd shows up as |
| 3 |
/dev/sda). Now it doesn't show up automatically. "fdisk -l" doesn't |
| 4 |
show it. But "fdisk /dev/sdb", followed by simply quitting fdisk wakes |
| 5 |
it up. /dev/sdb shows up, and I can do the usual mounting. I have fs |
| 6 |
type auto for /mnt/extdrive, because I may be hooking up an external USB |
| 7 |
hd (ReiserFS), a USB key (FAT32 for compatability with work), or SD card |

It was probably an "upgrade" somewhere over the past few weeks that |
| 10 |
did it. Is this a known problem? Even better is there a known problem. |

My Google-searching ability failed me with this one. My queries ran |
| 12 |
into a whole bunch of people trying to set up udev rules to recognize |
| 13 |
which device was mounted. That's not my problem. I simply need to have |
| 14 |
the system automatically recognize that *SOMETHING* exists on /dev/sdb. |
| 15 |
I can type "mount /mnt/extdrive". |
