I am trying to mount a Samsung phone card with little luck. Some Unbuntu users have succeded but as of yet no luck for me. Vl-hot automatically picks up my Sony Ericsson but nothing on the Samsung. Vector does however know it is there.
The successfull users tried
mount /dev/sda
I get
mount: can't find /dev/sda in /etc/fstab or /etc/mtab
If I remove the comment from the below line in /etc/fstab could I mount as sda1
# example of a VFAT USB pendrive
#/dev/sda1 /mnt/pendrive vfat fmask=111,dmask=0,noauto,user,quiet,shortname=mixed 0 0
I checked to see if device shows up
lsusb
Bus 003 Device 003: ID 04e8:663e Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd
double check to see if it is mounted
mount
/dev/hda2 on / type reiserfs (rw,noatime)
/dev/hda3 on /home type reiserfs (rw,noatime)
tmpfs on /dev/shm type tmpfs (rw)
usbfs on /proc/bus/usb type usbfs (rw,devmode=0666)
shm on /dev/shm type tmpfs (rw)
/dev/hda4 on /mnt/hda4 type reiserfs (rw,noatime)
I am assuming since the phone is connected via USB cable the usbfs is the phone. There are no other USB devices plugged in at the moment.
If I pull up the devices file from /proc/bus/usb I see this

The file indicated by lsusb above /proc/bus/usb/003/003 is ureadable.
The phone is set for mass storage so I am looking for a block device. If the device is visible with the lsusb command should I not be able to mount it?
