How can I mount my LeapFrog Tag USB device?
The easiest way
sudo -i
blkid
then plugin ur usb then run
blkid
before Usb
After Usb Plugged-in
so now i know my usb is vfat & its sdb1
if its auto mounted and u want to mount it manually
1st run umount /dev/sdb1
now manually mounting
mkdir /media/myusb
or make a folder where u want to mount your usb
mount -t vfat /dev/sdb1 /media/myusb
now usb has been mounted on /media/myusb

Leapfrog Crammer won't mount as a USB flash drive
I give up:
the only way I found to make this Leapfrog Tag working is to plug it on a Windows XP PC.
This is not a real answer
I just want to record the tasks I'm using to try to solve my problem based on the wiki about Didj given by fossfreedom:
I'm trying to unlock access to the LeapFrog Tag USB:
1- install sg3_util
2- get "some" Leapfrog Didj programs (Didj seems to be an other Leapfrog USB device)
$ wget http://medialib.leapfrog.com/didj_opensource_code/Didj-Linux-4222-20090422-1236.tar.gz
$ tar -xzf Didj-Linux-4222-20090422-1236.tar.gz
3- searh the programm scsi_custom.c
$ find . -name scsi_custom.c
./Didj-Linux-4222-20090422-1236/host_tools/scsi/scsi_custom.c
4a- perhaps program needs to be customized for the Leapfrog TAG instead of the Didj device ? but I don't know what part to be modified.
4b- compile the program scsi_custom.c (with some warning unfortunately)
$ cd Didj-Linux-4222-20090422-1236/host_tools/scsi
$ gcc -o scsi_custom scsi_custom.c
scsi_custom.c: In function ‘print_reply’:
scsi_custom.c:201:3: attention : format ‘%x’ expects argument of type ‘unsigned int’, but argument 2 has type ‘long unsigned int’ [-Wformat]
5- plug the LeapFrog Tag USB and turn it on
to cross-check that the device is well plugged, I do lsusb
and get something like:
$ lsusb
...
Bus 005 Device 009: ID 0f63:0700 LeapFrog Enterprises POGO
6- and here, according to the wiki, I should $tail -f /var/log/messages
but /var/log/messages does not exist.
Else trying:
- $ tail -f /var/log/dmesg
does not return much
- $ dmesg | grep -i usb
returns this[20221.960029] usb 5-1: new full speed USB device number 2 using uhci_hcd
-$ dmesg | grep -i scsi
returns :
[ 1.228576] sd 2:0:0:0: Attached scsi generic sg1 type 0
[ 1.252491] scsi 3:0:0:0: Direct-Access ATA Hitachi HDT72101 ST6O PQ: 0 ANSI: 5
[ 1.252724] sd 3:0:0:0: Attached scsi generic sg2 type 0
[ 1.263917] sd 2:0:0:0: [sda] Attached SCSI disk
[ 1.331646] sd 3:0:0:0: [sdb] Attached SCSI disk
Note that /dev/sda and /dev/sdb are hard disk, not the USB device that I m looking for.
So I m still unable to know the /dev/sg? for my device.
So I m unable to continue this solution.
