The reason that the HTC Dream creates a /dev/sdx device when plugged in is because it supports a combination USB driver in the kernel used on the device. Right now, the kernel used on the Freerunner uses the USB ether gadget driver which allows a network connection. On the HTC Dream, it's a hybrid gadget, ADB/mass storage (which means only ADB is accessible, not ADB over usb ethernet on the Freerunner).

If someone wants to port/write that driver into the kernel, you would be more than welcome to do so. It's on the (long) list of things to do.


Hi Brian,

Thanks for your input. Don't hold your breath on this, I tend to get exited about thousands of things, but get down to do anything only about a few a year ; I also need to send my FreeRunner in to get the buzz fix right now, so won't be able to start for a while.

Anyway, which driver are you talking about here ?
Is this the driver in the Linux kernel that runs underneath Android ?
Or the driver inside Android ?


Thanks.
