FWIW, if you use a USB-connected card reader, then the physical media
doesn't actually matter: it's the card reader which handles the details
of the "Memory Stick" access and your computer will only see a standard
USB-connected disk.
Of course compatibility with GNU/Linux can still be relevant in terms of
the file-system used on those things. I have an old Sony camera using
Memory Stick Pro and the file system used on it is FAT, so I have
absolutely no trouble reading it on my Debian boxes with a USB-connected
card reader. But in your case, the "Input/output error" indicates the
problem comes before your computer has a chance to look at the
file-system.
Maybe the card you tried to use, or the card reader was faulty (in my
experience, both have fairly high failure rates).
