I have a SanDisk Cruzer reader, and I have a 32MB, 128MB and 512MB successfully. In fact, I have a encrypted loopback ext2 filesystem created on the 32MB. > When I insert or remove the card dmesg show nothing. > > Searching with google shows a lot of questions/answers about USB-memory > cards but this a Secure Digital card (to use in my Palm m500). A couple of questions. Do you compile your own kernel? I have been able to mount it on a system I built last week with the base install and a limited number of debs (its going to be a firewall). This box, at the moment, only has a default kernel installed. Do you have any indicators on the card reader> Do they light up when you plug it in? Do you have other USB devices and do they work? You need, at a minimum, the following enabled in your kernel: CONFIG_SCSI CONFIG_BLK_DEV_SD CONFIG_USB CONFIG_USB_DEVICEFS CONFIG_USB_EHCI_HCD (for USB 2.0) CONFIG_USB_OHCI_HCD and/or CONFIG_USB_UHCI_HCD (USB 1.1) CONFIG_USB_STORAGE CONFIG_VFAT_FS I believe these are all the kernel parameters that need to be set (either module or inline should work). When I plugged the card into the firewall-to-be, I got the following: Aug 17 23:02:42 localhost kernel: usb 1-1: new full speed USB device using address 2 Aug 17 23:02:45 localhost kernel: SCSI subsystem initialized Aug 17 23:02:45 localhost kernel: Initializing USB Mass Storage driver...
