First, I have a digital camera which shows up as /dev/sda1. Works fine, but I've just bought a card reader which ALSO shows up as /dev/sda for its CF slot. What can I do to force one to change its mapping?
Second, the multicard reader I bought only shows its CF slot, because I only have /dev/sda, no /dev/sdb, /dev/sdc, or /dev/sdd. How can I get the new /dev points?
The card reader is a CompUSA USB 6-in-1 Card Reader/Writer (model# no CRW-600). Not sure who really makes it, but here's the listing from USB Viewer.

When /dev/sda exists, the CF slot works fine, and I suspect that the other slots would work fine if I could get the other /dev entries.
