If you have no other SCSI devices on your computer, the camera is probably detected as /dev/sda1 device. Here s what the entry might look like: /dev/sda1 /mnt/camera auto defaults, user,noauto 0 0 If no such entry appears, create the entry. Create the mount point directory (as root user, type mkdir /mnt/camera). 4. As root user, type the command to mount the camera: mount /mnt/camera. 5. Open the /mnt/camera directory as you would any other directory from the shell or from a file manager. Copy, delete, move, and rename files as you would any files on your hard disk. 6. When you are done, unmount the camera (as root user from a Terminal window): # umount /mnt/camera If you unplug your camera without unmounting the file system, it could damage the files on your camera. You can follow this procedure to use other USB mass storage devices (CD drives, keychains, and so on) in Linux. Use different mount directories (such as /mnt/ keychain) and check which SCSI device is being assigned to the USB storage device. To see if your USB storage device can be seen by Linux, check the /var/log/dmesg file or run the usbview command. Either will tell you if the device is being detected properly by Linux.
