Hi Silva!

Is it a USB-Cardreader or do you put the flash card in a slot on your computer?
If it is a slot on your computer (= a controller on your board) check if you installed
the necessary drivers as modules or in the kernel.

Try to create the mountpoints manually if they don't exsist yet.
Code:
# mkdir /mnt/flash


Add the flash devices manually to /etc/fstab. (Replace XXX with the name of your flash device.)
Code:
# emacs /etc/fstab
/dev/XXX               /mnt/flash    auto            noauto,users    0 0


Cheers,

Dan
