That being said, I have a Nikon D70 digital camera that I am trying to mount on a freshly installed FC3. When I plug the camera in, and turn it on, I get the following messages in /var/log/messages (editted for brevity):

....
This continues for some while.
If I were just looking at this, I might assume that the CF card (actually, a microdrive) was improperly formatted, or that there were other problems reading the card.
However, using the same exact computer, but booting into a stock FC1, I have no problems (although I have to mount /dev/sda1 myself).
Note, I have not been able to successfully mount the camera in either FC2 or FC3, suggesting a problem with the 2.6 kernel (could be a red herring, but...).
Any recommendations on how to proceed or test would be greatly appreciated. I can provide additional information, as requested (eg, FC1 /var/log/messages, lsmod, etc).
Tonight, I am going to try and build a stock 2.6 kernel, and see if that helps, hinders, or continues with the same results.
TIA
