If the mobile supports usb-mass-storage, then do a dmesg and you should get info on the phone, the size of the memory card and such. The output should look similar to this:

usb 1-4: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 3 scsi1 : SCSI emulation for USB Mass Storage devices Vendor: SanDisk Model: Cruzer Micro Rev: 0.2 Type: Direct-Access ANSI SCSI revision: 02 SCSI device sda: 1000944 512-byte hdwr sectors (512 MB) sda: Write Protect is off SCSI device sda: 1000944 512-byte hdwr sectors (512 MB) sda: Write Protect is off sda: sda1 Attached scsi removable disk sda at scsi1, channel 0, id 0, lun 0

See the drive is present on /dev/sda1 so you can simply mount it like this:

mount -t auto /dev/sda1 /mnt/usb-drive

or

mount -t auto -o uid=daj,gid=daj /dev/sda1 /mnt/usb-drive

if you want the user daj and group daj to have complete read/write access to the drive.

If your Nokia phone uses its own driver then it might be difficult to get it working under Linux. But generally they have data transfer modes that can be set to "normal" or "usb" so that the device reports itself as a usb mass storage device.

ciao!
