Hi, my MMC flashcard used to work with my usb card reader right until a boot-crash of an embedded system while the card was in use there. Since then, both Linux and Windows report the card being write-protected. Reading still works without problems.
Note, on MMC-Cards there is no write-protect clip so I have no idea how it happened to become write protected and - even more important - how to unprotect it. I've already cheated the sd-driver to ignore the WP-bit so I can rw-mount again. However, when trying to write to the guy it returns command errors due to media protection still effective. So my current conclusion is somehow the MMC really managed to get into a write-protected state without any mechanical switch. Any hints how to unprotect it? Is it possible somehow to clear the WP state by software? Or does this probably mean the MMC went south?
