Hi,

I have connected my digital camera to the USB port on my lap top. Redhat 8.0 automatically detects and loads kernel modules for this.
How do I mount the filesystem on the camera so that I can download the pictures.

Thanks,
Trystan.

Use
mount -t vfat /dev/sdc1 /mnt/camera

You'd better add a soft to deal with your pictures, such as gphoto (like you would do under m$). The following link confirms that your camera is supported by gphoto:

Here's the link to the gphoto site:

Red Hat 8.0 has an app called gtkam which can import images from cameras supported by gphoto. Try it out if you have it installed.
