USB-cardreader on PowerPC?
Hi all,
I'm trying to read images from a digital camera via an USB connected
card reader on my Pismo Powerbook. I use the cardreader on my intel
laptop as well on one of my USB capable intel desktops. Hence, I
thought, I knew, how it works. But I can't manage it to work on my
PPC.
I build a 2.4.18 kernel myself and included USB support,
USB-mass-storage, SCSI, SCSI-generic, SCSI-disk and FAT / VFAT
filesystem support as modules. The modules where loaded into the
kernel, as /sbin/lsmod shows:
rekass2:~# /sbin/lsmod
Module Size Used by Not tainted
vfat 11792 0 (autoclean)
fat 35052 0 (autoclean) [vfat]
sd_mod 13148 0 (autoclean)
appletalk 24852 12 (autoclean)
rtc 1760 0 (autoclean)
sg 34420 0 (unused)
usb-storage 57192 0
scsi_mod 93856 3 [sd_mod sg usb-storage]
Attached devices:
Host: scsi0 Channel: 00 Id: 00 Lun: 00
Vendor: General Model: Flash Disk Drive Rev: 2.05
Type: Direct-Access ANSI SCSI revision: 02
Host: scsi0 Channel: 00 Id: 00 Lun: 01
Vendor: General Model: Flash Disk Drive Rev: 2.05
Type: Direct-Access ANSI SCSI revision: 02
Host: scsi0 Channel: 00 Id: 00 Lun: 02
Vendor: General Model: Flash Disk Drive Rev: 2.05
Type: Direct-Access
As you cann see, the device is detected correctly. On my intel
machines, I use
mount -t vfat /dev/sda1 /mnt/camera to mount the smart media card of
this card reader. (The other reported devices are compact flash and
micordrive, which I don't own and hence can't check ...) ON my PPC I
get the errormessage:
mount: /dev/sda1 is not a valid block device
What is going wrong? What may be missing?
Thanks in advance
Jan
