I have just acquired a Digital Dream Enigma1 USB camera, and have spent the last few days Googling and Searching How-Tos and LinuxQuestions. From what I can gather I need to mount the camera as follows:
mount -t vfat /dev/sda1 /mnt/camera
I had already created the camera directory under /mnt with
mkdir -m 777 camera
but on checking the /dev directory there is no sda1
lsmod | grep usb
gives the following:
usb-storage 91616 0 (unused)
scsi_mod 106176 4 (autoclean) [usb-storage sg st sr_mod sd_mod]
usb-uhci 25136 0 (unused)
usbcore 74988 1 [usb-storage usb-uhci]
lsmod | grep scsi
gives:
scsi_mod 106176 4 (autoclean) [usb-storage sg st sr_mod sd_mod]
/proc/bus/usb/devices has the following in it:

At the suggestion of someone from LinuxQuestions I did the following:
makedev /dev/sda
took 1.5 hours at 99% CPU usage and created approx 8000 entries under the sda directory, one of which was an sda1 which when added to the mount
mount -t vfat /dev/sda/sda1 /mnt/camera
returned
/dev/sda/sda1 not a valid block device
It also keeps adding some simlinks to my Desktop directory pertaining to a USB Scanner (Which I don't have I have a parellel scanner)
Below is the last few lines of /var/log/dmesg and /var/logmessages
The last few lines of dmesg:

Though the time stamp of this file is when it was booted up the file /var/log/messages contains the following and is written to when the camera is plugged in:
Jul 30 21:53:46 localhost kernel: usb.c: USB disconnect on device 00:07.2-1 address 4

Any help would be greatly appreciated
