IIRC, you've got a Canon A20.  Are you using gPhoto or
going through the usb-storage module?

 From playing around with Compact Flash on RH7.2, things
get a bit confused if you pop the card out before stopping
the IDE device.  Does the kernel gracefully handle the 
USB-SCSI devices going away unexpectedly?
