Well, you have to emerge hotplug
Run the script (as root)
Code: | /etc/init.d/hotplug start |
If you want started at each boot, add it to the default runlevel
Code: | rc-update add hotplug default |
Then you should see sda, sdb, sdc, sdd, sde in your /dev. If you have only sda, then your kernel does not check for multiple LUNs (Linux uses SCSI emulation to operate card readers). To make the system see the other 4 card slots, write this as root in the console:
Code: | echo >/proc/scsi/scsi "scsi add-single-device 0 0 0 1"
echo >/proc/scsi/scsi "scsi add-single-device 0 0 0 2"
echo >/proc/scsi/scsi "scsi add-single-device 0 0 0 3"
echo >/proc/scsi/scsi "scsi add-single-device 0 0 0 4"
|
You will have to enter these every time you need access to the slots 2-5.
Now you can mount the card! Example: you inserted a card in the 3rd slot. Code: |
mkdir /mnt/card
mount -t vfat /dev/sdc1 /mnt/card |
