<snip> - I'm trying to get a USB compact flash card reader working

Thanks for the quick reply - it got me looking at some more man pages and
I think I'm getting closer. But what I really need is detailed, step by
step instructions. If I could get them I will write up the howto.

Exactly what devices do I need in the kernel? da and scbus... is pass
required too? Why does the usb stuff require the scsi drivers and how does
not having a scsi adapter card installed (or compilied into the
kernel) affect this? Any other kernel devices required?

What nodes do I need to make in /dev? /dev/da0c says its not configured,
there does not appear to be a /dev/umass0 and MAKEDEV does not know how to
do it. How do I setup /dev?

Is camcontrol required to rescan the bus everytime I change
cards? Everytime the system boots? Or just everytime I plug the reader
into the usb port? When the camcontrol command wants a bus, what do I give
it?

What device node does this thing show up on?
