We have a Sony Cyber-shot model DSC-U20 camera. We had to add USB filesystem support and generic SCSI support to our kernel, but besides that, using the camera with GNU/Linux was quite easy. After your kernel is happy, just plug in your USB device and run dmesg:
root@srv-1 u-1 # dmesg . . . hub.c: new USB device 00:1f.4-2, assigned address 2 scsi1 : SCSI emulation for USB Mass Storage devices Vendor: Sony Model: Sony DSC Rev: 4.30 Type: Direct-Access ANSI SCSI revision: 02 Attached scsi removable disk sdb at scsi1, channel 0, id 0, lun 0 SCSI device sdb: 253696 512-byte hdwr sectors (130 MB) sdb: Write Protect is off /dev/scsi/host1/bus0/target0/lun0: p1 WARNING: USB Mass Storage data integrity not assured USB Mass Storage device found at 2 . . . |
This will tell you what SCSI device you need to mount. We need to mount partition 1 on sdb:
root@srv-1 u-1 # mount -t vfat /dev/sdb1 /mnt/camera root@srv-1 u-1 # cd /mnt/camera/dcim/100msdcf root@srv-1 100msdcf # ls dsc00021.jpg dsc00022.jpg dsc00023.jpg dsc00024.jpg dsc00025.jpg root@srv-1 100msdcf # |
