The following allows me to mount my Optio 430RS digital camera under linux with the 2.4.20 kernel (the solution was found on a Spanish site; unfortunately I do not have the link):

Modify the drivers/usb/storage/unusual_devs.h file in the kernel source and add the following:

/* Pentax Optio 330/430RS digital still cameras */
UNUSUAL_DEV( 0x0a17, 0x0004, 0x0000, 0xffff,
"Pentax",
"Optio 330/430 RS",
US_SC_8070, US_PR_CB, NULL,
US_FL_MODE_XLATE|US_FL_FIX_INQUIRY ),


Recompile the kernel & modules, install the new kernel and reboot. To mount, type the following as root:

mount -t vfat /dev/sda1 /my/mount/point

where /my/mount/point is any mount point on your system (mine is /mnt/camera).

Thanks to all who assisted me. One less reason to boot into Windoze...


Burt.
