I'm running pekwm on debian Jessie. I can mount my Nook Tablet using Thunar, but I'd rather do it with pmount which I use for most of my device mounting tasks. The problem is I don't know how to do it with pmount. When I run dmesg after plugging the device in I get the following:

[ 1620.022282] usb 1-1.2: Product: BNTV600

[ 1726.424078] usb 1-1.2: SerialNumber: 3024720175234303

which doesn't give me any obvious node to mount. Usually I'd type "pmount /dev/sdb1" or something like that. Is it possible, and if so, no would I do it?

Again it does mount with Thunar.

Can you post /etc/fstab?

# /etc/fstab: static file system information.
#
# Use 'blkid' to print the universally unique identifier for a
# device; this may be used with UUID= as a more robust way to name devices
# that works even if disks are added and removed. See fstab(5).

Although I'm pretty sure pmount doesn't use fstab.

I believe that the Nook is an MTP device. The reason thunar works is due to Gnome's gvfs and gvfs-mtp.

If you want to mount your nook then you need to use the fuse filesytem jmtpfs
