I have a problem with my buildin multicard reader.
when I insert a compact flash card it is not detected
I boot from a Knoppix 3.7 CD
lsmod gives me the following output
Code:

and the output from lsusb is
Code:
Bus 004 Device 001: ID 0000:0000
Bus 003 Device 001: ID 0000:0000
Bus 002 Device 001: ID 0000:0000
Bus 002 Device 002: ID 0aec:3050 Neodio Technologies Corp. ND3050 8-in-1 Card Reader
Bus 001 Device 001: ID 0000:0000
So the card reader itself is detected
The command
Code:
ls /mnt
results in
Code:
auto  cdrom  cdrom1  floppy  hd  pts  sda1  sda3  sda5  sda6  sdb  sys  test
My hard drive is sda. I think that sdb is the flash disk so Knoppix knows at least at some level that there it is there.
But when I try
Code:
mount -t msdos /dev/sdb /mnt/sdb
I get
Code:
mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sdb,
       or too many mounted file systems
I dont know what to try next
Thanks
