Aloha Hopefully this is a simple question. FreeBSD does not support my Olympus C-3000 Zoom camera so I bought a card reader (usb). It has 4 slots and when I boot or just plug it in I get 4 drives (da0, da1, da2, & da3). If I have a SmartMedia card installed I also see da2s1. da2s1 mounts fine and I am able to see and use all of the photo files. I have additional SM cards and would like to change the installed card at will. If I do a umount and replace the card and try to mount again I get an error "mount_msdosfs: /dev/da2s1: Invalid argument". I should say that the cards are different sizes. In order to mount another card I have to unplug the usb cable and re-plug it in with the new card in the slot. I have read man camcontrol and do not see an option I can use. Is there a way to do this without unplugging and re-plugging the cable? hp# uname -a FreeBSD hp.hawaii.rr.com 5.2-CURRENT FreeBSD 5.2-CURRENT #0: Thu Jun 10 12:39:40 HST 2004 root@hp.hawaii.rr.com:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC i386 Thank You Robert
