Sd Card Trouble
« on: August 08, 2005, 05:10:57 pm »
Hello,

I'm using a MyFlash (ADATA) 1 GB SD card.  The Zaurus says that it can't mount the card.  

I tried:

mkfs.vfat /dev/mmcda1

(/dev/mmcda1:  No such device)

and

mkfs.ext2 /dev/mmcda1

(mtfs.ext2:  No such device while trying to determine filesystem size).

When I try to mount the device:

mount /dev/mmcda1

(mount: /dev/mmcda1: unknown device)


No Luck!  I don't have an SD card reader, so I can't play around w/ this on my OS X computer.

Any suggestions?


Louis

The SD utils have been updated. Grab the newer version (can't think offhand what its name is, but it has 'sd' as part of it). If you have a internet connection to the zaurus, just issue an 'ipkg upgrade'.

try to edit /etc/sdcard/sd.conf and  /etc/fstab with "/dev/mmcd1 to /dev/mmcda"
then
mount /dev/mmcda /mnt/card
