Post subject:  2in1 flash media card reader in R5A16, help plz

I have an Antec Aria case, which has a built in 2in1 CF/SD flash media reader. I would really like this this to mount, once there I can handle the automounting, but I'm having a few problems.

I have built and installed the sg3_utils (1.15), which many websites seem to recommend using for this type of thing. I can only see the CF reader and not the SD reader, which is a bummer because all my media is SD. "sg_scan -i" returns
Code:
/dev/sg0: scsi1 channel=0 id=0 lun=0 [em]  type=0
    USB2.0    CF  CardReader          [wide=0 sync=0 cmdq=0 sftre=0 pq=0x0]

and sg_map returns
Code:
/dev/sg0  /dev/sda

But "dmesg | grep sda" returns
Code:
Attached scsi removable disk sda at scsi0, channel 0, id 0, lun 0
Attached scsi removable disk sda at scsi1, channel 0, id 0, lun 0

I was told that if I had a 2in1 it would list atleast 2 items in both of the sg_utils scans. So the SD reader should be sdb...right? Anyone have some insight?...especially with the Aria one?

(And I dont know if the CF reader works/is mountable, I dont have any CF media, nor do I know of anyone that does)

https://www.scientificlinux.org/documentation/howto/multicard.reader.sl4x this should help.

There are also a few gems here http://www.cs.sfu.ca/~ggbaker/personal/cf-linux

I hope you found what you where looking for. It took me over a year to finally figure this out. (I wasn't too committed.)
