MP3 player fails to mount.

[Mark Haney]

Okay, I'm still banging my head against this problem with my daughters
MP3 player.  In syslog I get this:

Jul 10 11:27:30 sulla kernel: usb 4-6: new high speed USB device using
ehci_hcd and address 19

Jul 10 11:27:35 sulla kernel: sd 17:0:0:0: Attached scsi generic sg4 type 0

Yet when I try to mount sdc1 I get 'special device does not exist'.

Any ideas?
