Zaurus - pdaXrom / I/O error on sd-card
« on: May 18, 2005, 02:20:11 am »
I use Sandisk 512 MB and 1.0GB cards,
Both have the same problem with ext2. (I formatted with and without the cfdisk step, single and multiple partitions, all the same problems)
I reformatted the 512 MB back to vfat and it works OK now, but I didn't transfer a lot of files to it using my Z up to now.
Yesterday I suspended my C860 (kathrin rom) while xmms was on pause from playing a directory on the SD card. After resume I had to reboot it before being able to run an e2fsck on the SD card. The whole directory of mp3's was removed during the file check.
Copying files to the SD card using sftp from my pc works like a charm until I suspend my Z, afterwards the files are often(but not always) not to be found on the SD card.
Copying a lot of files from the CF card to the SD card sometimes is problematic, the other way around always worked up to now.
It looks like a sync problem to me, that could explain why standard sandisk (a bit slower than the rest?) have more problems.
I'll try setting the sync option in my fstab file.
My first post, I like PdaXrom.
