How do you mean "automount" though I guess would be the question. Which distro? Do you have a card in there upon bootup? Internal eh? That sounds kind of cool, can you describe your hardware a bit?

Cool

Automount like automounting hard drives so I wouldn't have to type mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/sda1 everytime. Would this work even without a cf card on the drive?

Distro is RedHat9

It's a cheap ecs 6 in 1 usb card reader. I can't make my digital camera to work so I got this one instead.

No because you aren't mounting the reader, but rather the card. You probably wanna look at the Automount How To, brb with a link.
