upgrading cardmgr on SL6000
« on: July 15, 2004, 11:50:11 am »
Hi all,
I need to upgrade the cardmgr  to 3.2.7 on sl6000. But when I reboot my zaurus with the new cardmgr I get the following erors:
cardmgr[165]: socket 0: ATA/IDE fixed Disk
cardmgr[165]: executing ide_start hda 2&>1
cardmgr[165]: mounting /dev/hda1  on /mnt/cf failed: No such file or directory
cardmgr[165]: mounting /dev/hda1  on /mnt/cf failed: No such file or directory
cardmgr[165] :start command exited with status 1

Then it goes into this inifinite loop of
Wait 0
Zaurus screen for 30 sec
Wait 0
Zaurus screen for 30 sec

Does anybody have any idea on what I am doing wrong?  Any help would be appreciated.

Also anybody knows where I can get access to the cardmgr code that is used with the stock Sharp ROM on SL6000.

Like the rest of the SharpROM base distribution, the pcmcia-cs package is pretty outdated on your ROM. Request sources matching your distribution from Sharp - since it's GPL they must provide them. Beware that newer packages might expose severe bugs in the kernel.
