Digital camera access problem
Hi,
First the (maybe) usefull informations : I'm using redhat 9 with their latest kernel aka 2.4.20-18 (or 19:) I've a little digical cam Umax 470 (/proc/usb/bus/device call it viewquest 1310) I tried to mount it but it doesn't work, I got a "mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bla bla..." message.... the cam is supposed to support the usb mass storage protocol, wich at least seems to work because I fanaly get a complete dump of the memory using dd (dd if=/dev/sda of=/tmp/pics) trying to mount the /tmp/pics file on a loop device give the same error... So I tried fdisk /dev/sda; fdisk says that there is a error in the partion table (number of physical head is different than the number of logical head), I think the mount error comes from here but don't know how to solve the problem... I hope someone could help me, or give another place to look regards JF |
How did you try mounting it? Did you add the correct lines to fstab or did you use the /mnt/camera hopefully created by redhat? My experience with digital cameras and linux is quite good, I didnt have to do much, the correct mount points were created and it was just a simple "mount /mnt/camera", before I found out I did however fiddle a lot (in vain :D)!
You should be able to format the card through the camera itself. Nice information bout usb: http://www.linux-usb.org/ Cheers, Klod |
Now this work using /dev/sda1 in place of /dev/sda
I've been trying this before but not with le latest redhat kernel ! using kernel 2.4.20-18.9 it works ! Thanks for help ! Sorry for the dumb question ! I hope my mistake will help someone :) JF |
