Judging from that, it's /dev/sdb. Do an "fdisk -l /dev/sdb" and you
should find the partition (IIRC, it'll be /dev/sdb1). By default,
Fedora doesn't automount those devices unless you put in a udev rule
for it. So must "mount /dev/sdb1 /mnt" and access /mnt.
Here is my /etc/udev/rules.d/99-blackberry.rules:
--------------------------- CUT HERE --------------------------------
# This goes into /etc/udev/rules.d to set the permissions on the
# blackberry when it gets plugged in
SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ENV{DEVTYPE}=="usb_device", ATTR{idVendor}=="0fca",

Obviously, you need to add lines for your Bold similar to the two I
have above for my old Storm (now an Android2 user...and not thrilled
with it).
