Thanks everybody for the advice and help. I really appreciate it.
Vern, I followed your directions and the card is recognized by my system when
using the 'tail -f /var/log/messages' command. here is the output
with card unpluged:
~$ tail -f /var/log/messages

This seemed to be a good sign so I went on with your edit suggestion in fstab
here is a current coppy of my fstab:
# /etc/fstab: static file system information.
#
# <file system> <mount point> <type> <options> <dump> <pass>
proc /proc proc defaults 0 0
# /dev/sda1
UUID=fde3abc3-9f37-41da-add7-3e87f2bae66b / reiserfs notail
0 1
# /dev/sda3
UUID=9a29aada-0fd6-422a-90d0-6300e9928c4c /home reiserfs defaults
0 2
# /dev/sda2
UUID=b7689728-2b11-44b9-9678-8d8b188851e8 none swap sw
0 0
/dev/scd0 /media/cdrom0 udf,iso9660 user,noauto 0 0
/dev/sdd1 /media/card_reader auto users,noauto,rw 0 0
I then created the directory that you suggested and tried to mount the device
like you suggested. Unfortuately it came up with an error.
error output:
~$ mount /media/card_reader
[mntent]: warning: no final newline at the end of /etc/fstab
[mntent]: line 13 in /etc/fstab is bad
mount: can't find /media/card_reader in /etc/fstab or /etc/mtab
I feel like I almost have it fixed but my knowledge of fstab is quite limited.
I did notice though that the other devices in my fstab all have UUIDs. could
this be causing the problem? if so how do I find out what the UUID is for my
sd card reader?
Thanks
Todd
