For Fedora Core 2 and prior, check in /etc/sysconfig/hwconf the name of
this device. Then, in /etc/updfstab.conf.default, add under the "flash"
section a line such as:
match hd "Name of the flash reader"

Next time you plug it in, updfstab should add an entry to /etc/fstab for
you to be able to mount it. You can test without plugging/unplugging
with "updfstab -t" (IIRC).

Well, this is a list about configuration tools, not configuration
problems, try fedora-list instead:
