[wellylug] USB card reader + Mandrake linux

[Rosemary McGillicuddy]

I've just bought a card reader because can't get my camera recognised in 
mandrake.

I read instructions on a board and following that took a look using 
HardDrake - don't know if this is it or not.  Instructions said to look 
at hda.  It says "old device file: /dev/hda"  and just below " New devfs 
device:  /dev/ide/host0/bus0/target0/lun0/disc".

That's when I should have posted!  Thought I would plug it in and see if 
it would auto detect on reboot, but it hung at "starting ALSA".  So 
unplugged it and rebooted without it, but still hung at ALSA.  So here I 
am in windows begging for help to get mandrake going again.

Thanks in advance
