I feel really stupid right now and hope someone can help me out. I just got my Z like 2 days ago and have a 512mb SD card from my Rio Chiba MP3 Player and I poped it into my Z to see if I could see the mp3's on it but I cant seem to get the SD card mounted. Its the stock rom right out of the box. does it auto mount? I tried issuing mount /dev/mmcda /mnt/card and mount /dev/mmcda1 /mnt/card and neither worked. any help is appreciated. Thanks!

Hi dping28,
The Z should generally mount an SD or CF card automatically. Back in the day of my Rio PMP-300 I know the format of the cards used in Rios was some proprietary filesystem that was only recognized in the Rio. So it wouldn't automount, or mount at all in any other system I tried. Do you know what filesystem is on your SD card? If it has an unusual filesystem on it you may need to help mount out by telling it.

Thanks for the reply unfortunitly I do not know. Only way I can see what is on the SD Card is the Rio Manager software to transfer music directly to the Chiba and if I were to get it working on the Z. So if it auto mounts it then mine is probobly the same thing you had with the proprietary filesystem. Was hoping I could just pop it in and listen to my mp3s on both devices Oh well, will have to get another SD card and see if it works then. Thank you!
