Hi, I finally got my Phison 5in1 card reader working with kernel 2.4.18. However, I have a question (at the end of this all) regarding how the device is attached into my system.
I had to make a patch to the kernel: http://www.jaist.ac.jp/~fjt/src/mcrw-2.4.16.patch After that the usb-storage is correctly loaded into system and I see from syslog: Initializing USB Mass Storage driver... usb.c: registered new driver usb-storage scsi0 : SCSI emulation for USB Mass Storage devices WARNING: USB Mass Storage data integrity not assured USB Mass Storage device found at 2 USB Mass Storage support registered. At this point the /proc/scsi/scsi shows that there are no attached devices. In /proc/scsi/usb-storage-0/0 I see: Host scsi0: usb-storage Vendor: Phison Product: Multi-card R/W Serial Number: None Protocol: Transparent SCSI Transport: Control/Bulk/devices GUID: 0d7d02400000000000000000 Attached: Yes And /proc/bus/usb/devices (the relevant part): T: Bus=01 Lev=01 Prnt=01 Port=01 Cnt=01 Dev#= 2 Spd=12 MxCh= 0 D: Ver= 1.00 Cls=00(>ifc ) Sub=00 Prot=00 MxPS= 8 #Cfgs= 1 P: Vendor=0d7d ProdID=0240 Rev= 1.00 C:* #Ifs= 1 Cfg#= 1 Atr=80 MxPwr=100mA I: If#= 0 Alt= 0 #EPs= 3 Cls=00(>ifc ) Sub=00 Prot=00 Driver=usb-storage E: Ad=81(I) Atr=02(Bulk) MxPS= 64 Ivl=255ms E: Ad=02(O) Atr=02(Bulk) MxPS= 64 Ivl=255ms E: Ad=83(I) Atr=03(Int.) MxPS= 8 Ivl=255ms Should the usb-storage module add the device automatically into /proc/scsi/scsi? It doesn't seem to, and indeed only after a manual "scsiadd -a 0 0 0 1" I can start using my card reader: scsi singledevice 0 0 0 1 Vendor: Phison Model: Multi-card R/W Rev: 0100 Type: Direct-Access ANSI SCSI revision: 02 Attached scsi removable disk sda at scsi0, channel 0, id 0, lun 1 SCSI device sda: 256000 512-byte hdwr sectors (131 MB) sda: Write Protect is off /dev/scsi/host0/bus0/target0/lun1: p1 SCSI error: host 0 id 0 lun 1 return code = 8000002 Sense class 7, sense error 0, extended sense 0 And then "mount -t vfat /dev/sda1 /mnt/usbdisk". The disk seems to work OK, but the question is: why do I need to make this "scsiadd"? Do I miss something in the usb-storage driver? I really didn't find this mentioned by any usb-storage FAQ or guide. Possibly I have a misconfigured /etc/modules.conf. I've seen that there are others too in this list who have this card reader in particular. How do you have your system working? No tricks?
