I have in /etc/pcmcia/ide.opts:

echo -n $(date) ": " >>/tmp/pcmcia.mounts
echo "$ADDRESS" >>/tmp/pcmcia.mounts
#
# Serial_no's Known:
#       MZX02225706               8MB Kodak CF card
#       05607526                160MB Lexar Media CF card
#
 
case "$ADDRESS" in
*,*,*,1)
    #INFO="Sample IDE setup"
    DO_FSTAB="y" ; DO_FSCK="n" ; DO_MOUNT="y"
    FSTYPE="vfat"
    OPTS="gid=500,uid=500,umask=0000"
    MOUNTPT="/mnt/card"
    ;;

    PARTS="1"
    # Card eject policy options
    NO_CHECK=n
    NO_FUSER=n
    ;;
esac


uid/gid=500 is my user id, the main/only user of the card reader.  I write
the info to /tmp/pcmcia.mounts, but I rarely use it beyond my initial
testing.  I've been using this for years.
