Problem
When connecting the
unit under Linux,
many input/output errors
and READ CAPACITY
errors with sns = 70 2,
ASC=3a, ASCQ=0 are
shown by the
dmesg
command.
I want to format the
partition under Linux, but
I don't find the
mkfs.
msdos
command.
I have formated the
Drive under Windows,
but I cannot mount the
volume under Linux by
the
mount/dev/sdd1
command.
I cannot make a back-up
larger than 4 GB,
although my unit
has more than that free
space.
Cause
Nothing is wrong.
This is only because
the memory slot is
empty at connecting
time.
The
Dosutils
package
is not installed.
A different volume
format called
Superfloppy (not
including a partition) is
made by Windows.
FAT-32 file system
limitation.
Solution
There is nothing to do.
Accessing to memory cards is
possible by inserting them
into the memory slot and
mounting the volume.
• Install the Dosutils package.
• Alternately, the partition can
be formated under Windows
or MacOS 9.
To mount a Superfloppy
volume under Linux, a
partition number must not be
specified in the device name:
mount/dev/sdd.
The FAT-32 file system allows
for files up to 4 GB in length.
Split the back-up into blocks
smaller than 4 GB.
