How do I figure out the ID of the sony device?
Be very careful you run that command on the correct device.

The easiest way to find the device id is to plug in the device, wait for it to be detected and do the following:

Code:
$ cat /etc/mtab
Toward the end (probably the very last entry) you will see something like:
Code:
/dev/sdb /media/Cybook\040Gen3 vfat rw,nosuid,nodev,uhelper=udisks,uid=1000,gid=100,shortname=mixed,dmask=0077,utf8=1,flush 0 0
The first part /dev/sdb is what the device is being set to. Again /dev/sdb is on my system it could be different on your computer depending on how many devices are already connected.
