Removable disc connection problem

[Adam Myrow]

By any chance, did you configure your kernel to probe all LUNs for SCSI 
devices?  Since USB storage devices emulate SCSI, and card readers show up 
as multiple devices, this is necessary to access all the slots on the card 
reader.  Also, I've had some USB storage devices, like my cell phone, show 
up with no partitions.  In that case, I had to mount the whole disk, I.E. 
/dev/sde, in order to access it.  HTH.
