RE: Advise on using USB Cameras on null

I have a Fuji that works fine with the Smartmedia card. I needed two things
in my kernel: Vfat and usb-storage support. With that, I made a dir called
~/pics, plugged in the camera to the USB port and turned it to review mode.
Then mount:

mount /dev/sda1 /home/rw/pics

Hope this helps out.
