I am having a problem with FC3 and my USB drives.  I have a USB CF card 
reader and a USB "thumb drive" that I cannot get to.  With FC3 they 
implemented a HAL deamon for hot-plug that automatically updates fstab 
and mounts the device on /media

When I plug them in, the new directory shows up in /media as it should.  
For example, if I plug in my SimpleTech USB thumb drive, the 
directory /media/SIMPTECH shows up.  However, even as root it has no 
files in it.  The entry in fstab correctly shows vfat as the file type 
but I cannot see any files if I do 'ls /media/SIMPTECH' as root.

I have been reading about udev and the various rule files under /etc/udev 
that appear to control this sort of thing.  But, as I continue to read up 
on it all, I thought I'd ask PLUG for any hints.

---fstab when both card reader and thumb drive are plugged in (CANON_DC is 
the card reader):
