[CLUG] USB CF card

[CLUG] USB CF card

Peter Flynn peter at silmaril.ie

If I plug in a CF card to the USB port, it seems to be recognised,
as /proc/scsi/scsi says:

Host: scsi1 Channel: 00 Id: 00 Lun: 00
  Vendor: SIIG     Model: CompactFlash Car Rev: 0113
  Type:   Direct-Access                    ANSI SCSI revision: 02

But how do I deduce what device to mount it as? /proc/devices says
I have these block devices:

Block devices:
  1 ramdisk
  2 fd
  3 ide0
  8 sd
  9 md
 11 sr
 12 unnamed
 14 unnamed
 22 ide1
 38 unnamed
 39 unnamed
 65 sd
 66 sd

but that doesn't look enough to tell me what physical /dev/??? to 
mount.

This is RH9...any sensible OS would detect the card and mount it
automatically. Suggestions (apart from using Windows :-)?
