# Assume 770                                                                                                                         
INT_CARD=""                                                                                                                          
EXT_CARD="mmcblk0"                                                                                                                   
...
This has only been tested on my N810 but it works there. Would someone with an N800 like to test it as well?

Maybe Frantisek could consider adding the device name logic to the standard bootmenu.sh and we could all just use the device name variables in our bootmenu.conf?
Hi,

here is version that I'd like to put to boomenu.sh
Code:
INT_CARD=""
EXT_CARD=""
case `grep product /proc/component_version` in
*SU-18)
        [ -d /sys/block/mmcblk0 ] && EXT_CARD="mmcblk0"
        ;;
*RX-*)
        for i in mmcblk0 mmcblk1 ; do
        if [ -d /sys/block/$i ] ; then
        case `cat /sys/block/$i/device/../slot_name` in
                internal) INT_CARD=$i ;;
                external) EXT_CARD=$i ;;
        esac
        fi
        done
        ;;
esac
Anyone wants to put it to beginning of their bootmenu.conf instead of Graham's code and report how it works? Seems to work here with N810 and 770 at least. Should work with N800 too.
