Hi,

I have a problem with a NYTECH ND-4020 digital camera. When I plug it in
when running Windows, it is beeing reconized as a usb mass storage device,
and it works so it supports USB mass storage. I have another digital
camera, that also supports usb mass storage, a HP Photosmart 318 and works
fine with Linux. Below is some information that I have gathered doing al
little research and searching the internet:

When I connect the NYTECH to the PC, It always appears on /dev/sg0 when I
scan with sg_scan -i

root@sjakie:/usr/src/linux# sg_scan -i
/dev/sg0: scsi1 channel=0 id=0 lun=0 [em] type=0
    NYTECH ND-4020 0101 [wide=0 sync=0 cmdq=0 sftre=0 pq=0x0]

The HP however, always appears on /dev/sg1.
No mather what USB port I use.
sg_map tells me that /dev/sg0 maps to /dev/sda, /dev/sg1 to /dev/sdb
With the NYTECH, when I use fdisk to display the partition table I get the
following output:

root@sjakie:/usr/src/linux# fdisk -l /dev/sda

Disk /dev/sda: 1073 MB, 1073741312 bytes
8 heads, 32 sectors/track, 8191 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 256 * 512 = 131072 bytes

   Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/sda1 1 485 62060+ 6 FAT16

When I try to mount it with

mount -t msdos /dev/sda1 /camera

I always get an error message the /dev/sda1 is not a valid block device or
somehting like that. Below is some /proc output:

root@sjakie:/usr/src/linux# cat /proc/bus/usb/devices | grep Product
S: Product=USB OHCI Root Hub
S: Product=USB OHCI Root Hub
S: Product=DSC ND-4020
root@sjakie:/usr/src/linux# cat /proc/scsi/usb-storage-0/1
   Host scsi1: usb-storage
       Vendor: Digital-Camera
      Product: DSC ND-4020
Serial Number: DSC0000001
     Protocol: Transparent SCSI
    Transport: Bulk
         GUID: 07841689000000dcc0000001
     Attached: Yes

Any clues?

Thanks,
Bruno
