When I use my USB card reader, I usually go through this:
$ mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/card
mount: special device /dev/sda1 does not exist
$ mount /dev/sda /mnt/card
mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sda,
or too many mounted file systems
Then /dev/sda1 magically appears and I can mount it:
$ mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/card
If I umount it and put another card in without waiting too long, I can
still mount /dev/sda1, but but that device disappears after a few
hours. Is this normal? Can it be fixed?
