Hi, i just bought a new 1Gb SD card for my c700, but when i try to write on it, it send´s an error.

I checked the permitions about the mounting devices and the mmcda1 is only read (ro).

If i remove and insert again, before i write on it, the mount command shows RW, but when i attemp to write on the sd card it is changed to RO.

Why?

The 1Gb SD card is a Sandisk.
It works perfectly with my USB card redaer.

I tested the zaurus with a panasonic 4Mb MMC card and it works perfectly.

My zaurus is a C700 with cacko.


Regards

I want to inform, that i contacted Sandisk support, and they ask em for pictures of the card, they told me that my Sandisk SD card is a counterfeit item.

here is the reply from Sandisk:

>Thank you for your response and sending thos pictures.

>Based on the information provided, we regret to inform you that you you >purchased a counterfeit item. It is not made by Sandisk and we will not be able >to provide you with support.
>
>We would suggest trying to obtain a refund from the place of purchase.
>
>Also, we will appreciate if you could give us the name and address of the vendor.
>
>Regards,
>SanDisk Technical Support

So now i will ask my refound to the place where i bought it.

Here is the pictures of the Fake Sandisk Card.

Actually it's easy to "counterfeit" those Sandisk cards. All of them look exactly the same on the outside: a small blue slate of plastic with golden contacts. The only way to tell them apart is the label... so people with questionable ethics can swap the labels with old cards that no one wants (16M, 32M) or even make new fake labels.

Anyway, later models have the size etched on the plastic instead of a label, and sometimes they have it etched on the back of the card too. That helps.
