[maemo-developers] [maemo-developers] Support for 2GB MMC?

[From: Brad Burleson]

All-

Sorry if this is a bit off-topic, but does anyone know if it's possible to
use 2GB MMC cards on the 770?

I know that Nokia states 1GB maximum, but 2GB cards are just starting to
become available.

I've tried playing with a 2GB MMC-Mobile card from Kingston today without
any luck.  The 'dmesg' output states the following:

[    3.218383] mmcblk0p0 mmc0:0001 MMCm 2039296KiB
[    3.219024]  mmcblk0: p1 p2
[...]
[  12.700378] FAT: bogus number of reserved sectors
[  12.700531] VFS: Can't find a valid FAT filesystem on dev mmcblk0p2
 [  12.710937] FAT: bogus number of reserved sectors
[  12.711090] VFS: Can't find a valid FAT filesystem on dev mmcblk0p2
[  12.721435] VFS: Can't find an ext2 filesystem on dev mmcblk0p2
[...]

The card has been formatted to contain 2 partitions:  128MB FAT and the rest
ext2.  Attempting to mount the ext2 filesystem after boot gives:

# mount /dev/mmcblk0p2 /mnt
mount: Mounting /dev/mmcblk0p2 on /mnt failed: invalid argument

followed by the above FAT/VFS error messages.

So.. any ideas of this is a hardware limitation (not enough address lines?)
or (hopefully) a bug in the software?

Thanks,

Brad.
