I am having a strange issue where when I plug in an SD or an SDHC card into my laptop it gets recognized in /var/log/messages, but it refuses to mount. There seems to be some info on this issue, but it all points to the user being in the AVAHI group. I've done that and it still seems to be having an issue.
Has anyone seen this issue and resolved it in another manner? My hardware, OS, and /var/log/messages information is below. Any assistance that you can give me would be greatly appreciated.
Hardware: Acer 8943G i7 8-Core 16GB RAM
OS: Fedora 14 x64 - 2.6.35.12-90.fc14.x86_64
/var/log/messages info: May 9 09:19:28 8943G kernel: [ 1543.474144] mmc0: ADMA error May 9 09:19:28 8943G kernel: [ 1543.474223] mmc0: error -5 whilst initialising SD card
Thank you.

Have you tried the cards in a different card reader? It's quite possible you have a bad reader, bad cards, or a driver bug. You should also probably try booting with a different kernel version (perhaps give it a go on an F15 live image).
Good luck.
Have you tried doing it with mount from a terminal and watch the logs for any errors? It should reveal what's failing.

I tried multiple readers. The card reads fine. It also reads fine if I leave it in the camera and treat the camera as if it were a drive. I suspect that it is a driver issue. Unfortunately, I can't think of a way to test that at the moment since I don't want to reload this box with Windows to test that theory.
Good luck.

One of the Live CDs? (Boot the computer from a CD, and run it from the CD, no installation required.)
