I stuck my shiny new 256MB CF card which I got for my digital camera into my SanDisk USB-based CF card reader, and while moving photos off of it, started getting "Input/output error"s, and noticing "attempt to access beyond end of device" errors in /var/log/messages
Everything seemed fine. Mounted as vfat. Images loaded fine in the camera. Ah-hah! Some googling found: http://www.geocrawler.com/mail/msg.php3?msg_id=9114131&list=4563 With the simple answer: If you switch between cards you need to do "eject sdX" so that it knows you are looking at a different card. I guess my system was 'used to' my 64MB card (that I use in my Zaurus to transfer files occasionally), and was unable to read beyond the 64MB spot on my 256MB card. Good trick to know... -bill! -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] Got kids?
