I have a Ricoh RDC-i500 Digital Camera, trouble is that it is totally incompatible with Linux. However it uses Compact Flash for storage, I rarely use the tiny internal storage.

I tried to find out which CF readers worked and did not. Of those that did, the only one I could find for sale was an old SanDisk model, at an inflated price, 1 supplier only!

I decided to buy a cheapo one from RL Supplies for £10+VAT, and believe me it looks even cheaper than that, though the lead supplied is probably £5-worth!

Anyway, I installed it. It was detected and set up by Mandrake 9.1. It appeared at /mnt/memory_card but in order to mount it I had to go into KDE Control Centre > Information > Storage Devices, right click on its logo, and mount it.

However, it does not appear in Mandrake Control Centre > Mount Points, so I cannot use the GUI to add Supermount.

I have put an icon on my desktop, what I would like to do is either:

Supermount it, or

Add a mount / unmount command to the icon on right click.

Anyone know how?

DON'T WORRY I just figured it out for myself.

If anyone has a similar problem:

Right click the KDE Desktop and select "New Floppy Device". (New CDROM/DVD device also works if you do not require the "Format" command).

Under General select a "mounted" icon, change name to "Memory Card".

Under Device select the relevant one (in my case the one with (/mnt/memory_card) after the dev name and select an "unmounted" icon.

Click OK.

You now have Mount or Unmount and Format on the right-click menu.

It also mounts automatically if you double click it...
