camera -fstype=auto :/dev/sda1 If you have other SCSI devices your camera will probably not be sda1, just check dmesg. After that you just cd into /misc/camera/dcim/100_fuji to see the pictures. It is probably a good idea to load usb-storage kernel module before also. And with the default behaviour the camera will be unmounted 60s after you leave the catalog. You can decrese the time (in /etc/auto.master). /Björn Rhoads
