I've got a multi-card reader (Using Centos-4, a clone of Redhat
Enterprise 4). It wouldn't see anything other than the CF slot until I
added the following lines to /etc/modprobe.conf:
options scsi_mod max_luns=8
Apparently, the multi-card readers look like multiple SCSI LUNs...
but not many other SCSI things do... thus the default to only scan one
LUN.
Some parsing of 'dmesg' or /var/log/messages might be in order to
fully figure it out.
