I assume that means you don't have a SmartMedia card... :)

what type of filesystem?  My memory stick mounts as vfat.  Also, you 
should be using /dev/sda?  where ? is [0-N].

I can mount my memstick as follows:

/bin/mount -t vfat /dev/sda1 /mnt/memstick

I'm wondering if it the internal memory and the SmartMedia would be seen 
as two different devices.  I would expect so.  That being said, I'd try 
all variations of:

for i in 0 1 2 3 4; do
/bin/mount -t vfat /dev/sda${i} /mnt/cam
done
