Hello,

I'm a N800 newbie and have been having some trouble with MMC
cards in my N800. I've been trying to get two 8G A-data SDHC
to work without any luck. I haven't been able to write anything to
them, nor have I been able to format them.

In an attempt to start simpler, I removed those cards out and put in
a 2G card (from Transcend) in the internal slot.

I also re-flashed the latest 2008 release.

Things seemed to go pretty well - I've installed maemo-mapper
and begun loading maps to a directory under /media/mmc1.

I wanted to see how much space the maps were tacking so I
ssh-ed into the N800 and did a 'df' and a 'mount'

Both of those say that the card is mounted on /media/mmc2 and
that nothing is mounted on /media/mmc1. Weird.

When I look at the mmc2 directory, it is empty - but /media/mmc1 is
still showing the mapper directory. (And the m-mapper file under
mmc1 is still growing as mapper writes into its cache.)

If I look at /etc/fstab, it lists the /dev/mmcblk0p1 as mounting at
/media/mmc1.

So, I'm confused as to why the 'df' and 'mount' commands are
showing what I think is the wrong directory.

Could this be behind my problems with trying to start with the 2 new
cards? (Perhaps the system was getting mixed up concerning
which card was mounted where.)

Can someone clear things up for me? (Or post a pointer to a thread
that covers this. My searching uncovered lots on mounting, but not
anything on this.)

Regards,

Ed
