    Hello,

    a single card in my SD card reader (usb) could be mounted
    with /dev/sda1. When booting my system with a card in the card reader
    the device /dev/sda1 is created. But when I drop the card from the
    card reader over night, /dev/sda and /dev/sda1 will be deleted on the
    next day and the device /dev/sda1 will not be automaticly created
    again when inserting a SD card. Then I have to reconnect (pull out/put
    in) the usb plug from the card reader *with* the SD card inserted to
    get /dev/sda1 again. When reconnecting the usb plug from the card
    reader *without* a inserted SD card, then only the device /dev/sda
    will be created but not /dev/sda1. A later inserting of the SD card
    will not create /dev/sda1.

    What process deletes /dev/sda1 when leaving my card reader over night
    without a card inside and how could I prevent this? I don't want to
    leave a card inside the card reader the whole time.
    And why is there no device /dev/sda1 when I inserted the SD card later?

    I never have had this problem in previous kernel versions.

    regards
    Olaf
