Mount it in fstab.
This is done from the terminal/shell with root access (sudo)
Make shure you know where the card is, something like /dev/sdxx.
Figure it out with the command: fdisk -l
Then the command: mkdir /media/MMCSD (you can replace MMCSD with what
ever you like)
Put these lines at the end of the file /etc/fstab with the command:
gedit /etc/fstab
/dev/sdb1 /media/MMCSD auto user,umask=1000,auto,exec,rw 0 0
|__your device may be different
Save fstab and run the command: mount -a (with the SD card in the reader)
Every time you boot up the card is mounted in /media/MMCSD
If you don't have the folder /media just replace it with /mnt or some
other folder on you harddrive.
