Message-ID: <20051019193913.GA21749@aitel.hist.no> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: inline User-Agent: Mutt/1.5.9i From: Helge Hafting Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org X-Mailing-List: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org I have an usb card reader (Apacer) in my desktop machine. It has several slots for different card types. One of the slots accepts the compactflash cards I use in my camera. I can mount those and copy the pictures, no problems there. (It becomes /dev/sdf) Another slot accepts SD/MMC cards. I tried inserting an MMC card, but nothing seems to happen. Using /dev/sdf doesn't work - no medium. And /dev/sdg doesn't exist. I obviously have usb block devices & scsi working, or I'd be unable to use the compactflash cards. I have also enabled CONFIG_MMC for this kernel. (2.6.14-rc3) Is there anything else I should do, to make the mmc slot work too? Helge Hafting
