Additional info:
On Fedora Core 2, this device is just "Cruzer Mini": [carter@localhost carter]$ cat /sys/bus/usb/devices/1-2/product Cruzer Mini Also, what's the difference between 'device flash' and 'device diskonkey' ??? The LEXAR device listed under 'device diskonkey' doesn't appear to be different than some of the devices listed under 'device flash'.
Historical reasons, almost certainly. (added at different times.)
Internal RFE bug #127786 entered.
And here's another one. The Cruzer mini model SDCZ2-512 will be matched by the line match hd "Generic STORAGE DEVICE" in /etc/updfstab.conf
Unfortunately, 'Generic Storage Device' isn't really a specific enough string; that could lead to lots of false matches with other devices.
Plugging the device in, I get the following text in /var/log/messages: Sep 3 14:53:23 david kernel: hub.c: new USB device 00:1d.7-8, assigned address 2 Sep 3 14:53:23 david kernel: usb.c: USB device 2 (vend/prod 0x781/0x7105) is not claimed by any active driver.

Is there any other way of identifying the device?
Not really as of now.
My Mac-using friend has a 256Mb Sandisk Cruzer Mini... he wasn't too impressed that I had to open a terminal and add an entry to /etc/updfstab.conf.default in order to get it automatically recognized. The entry I used was to add this to "device flash": match hd "Cruzer Mini" Any chance this will be fixed in FC3? It's a trivial fix.
FC3 doesn't use updfstab, so, no.
Oh, OK. Sorry for my ignorance! Also, when I insert it a second time, it doesn't get recognized (this is with the entry in /etc/updfstab.conf.default), but I guess if the mechanism's changed in FC3 then this isn't useful information any more.
Cruzer Mini is in kudzu-1.1.22.10-1 and later, which should be in U5.
Actually it's matched by 'SanDisk' in kudzu-1.1.22.9-1 which is availbale in U4 (-:
