OpenZaurus/Opie/Qtopia / compactflash problem
« on: October 03, 2004, 06:43:20 pm »
First off I am using a Zaurus SL-5600. I am running OpenZaurus Opie.
My problem is when I put my compact flash card in it doesn't seem to be mounting properly. I cannot access the files on the disk.
When I plug the card in I get the little icon on the task bar and it says:
Eject card 0: ATA/IDE Fixed Disk
I've been looking for other posts with similar problems, but nothing seems to be of any use. One site said to change the entry in /etc/fstab from auto to ext and then to # mount -t ext2 /dev/hda /mnt/cf/ or mount -t ext2 /dev/hda1 /mnt/cf/ And to check Settings/Media file
Another said to try #mount -t vfat /dev/sda1 /mnt/compactFlash or mount -t vfat /dev/hda1
From what i've tried nothing seems to work
I get mount: Mounting /dev/hda on /mnt/cf failed: No such device or address
Can't find /dev/hda1/mnt in /etc/fstab
I'm not really sure what is going on. I was curious if anyone else was having the same problem.
Oh and the compactflash card is a 256mb SanDisk. I has been working just fine on my desktop and my zaurus when I had znergy install. So I don't think the problem is the card.
If anyone could share any words of wisdom that would be most helpful.
