I have a card from a camera. The card itself seems fine because when I put it back into the camera I can see the pictures.
When I plug the card reader into the pc, its red light lights up but the "options" panel does not open.
dmesg | tail output:

cat /proc/partitions output:

The only thing which isn't one of the sda HD partition is sr0. So I tried mounting it:
sudo mount /dev/sr0 /media/disk
This gave me this:
mount: /media/disk: no medium found on /dev/sr0.
I also tried
sudo mount /dev/sdc /media/disk
which gave me:
mount: /media/disk: no medium found on /dev/sdc.
But I didn't expect it to function, I think I need an sdc1.
Could the card reader itself be faulty? It's the first time I try this one.
I'm not sure where you're getting these drive names from but have you tried manually mounting it???
To find all connected drives you can run something like:
sudo fdisk -lThen, find the drive you are looking for... You can then mount it by running something like:
sudo mount drive_you_found_here location_you_want_to_mount_to_hereI hope this solves your problem, but again I wasn't sure where you were getting these drive names from...
