Code:

[41945.280609] mmcblk1: error 1 transferring data, sector 59950448, nr 8, card status 0x900

[41945.280700] Buffer I/O error on device mmcblk1p2, logical block 414886
[41945.280731] lost page write due to I/O error on mmcblk1p2
Have you had any luck resolving your issue? I am going to have to downgrade to a class 6 or 4 if no fix can be found.

Actually these 4 error lines were the only ones until now. And I didn't notice any problems because of this error. The card is working since two days now.

I've downloaded a 700MB distro image over wlan to the sdhc and md5sum was ok. No errors occured. Reading from the card is also ok. No filesystem corruption.

If you have any specific usecase I should reproduce to force a filesystem corruption, I'll test it for you.

Maybe your card is faulty and you should replace it with another class 10 card.

Can you try setting up an easydebian image on it, and do basic APT operations?
Also, I was able to get fs corruption when deleting files.

Do you have some step by step instructions for setting up the easy debian image?

The instructions on http://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?p...4&postcount=29 should be sufficient.

If that looks like too much for you, just installing easydebian and placing the image on /media/mmc1, and running "apt-get update; apt-get install geany" inside the debian chroot should be enough to get I/O errors, and cause issues.''

I am currently testing copying an ubuntu livecd image to the microSD card over wifi, which seems to be going fine so far.

EDIT: Nitdroid is another thing which did not work for me on the microSD, you could try that if you want.

Ok, I formated my 32GB class 10 card with ext2 (I did this on my PC). After putting the card into my N900, I started to copy (tar) the debian files to the card. But this process aborted quite soon (I/O error).

Doing the same steps with my 16GB class 6 card is no problem.

AndrewX192, the questions now really would be if this can be fixed with a kernel patch, or if this really is a hardware compatibility problem.

Where did you get this card? I can buy only a Sandisk 32GB Class 2 card! The Patriot card was the only card which was available as Class 10.

Same issue then, I will likely downgrade as I do not have time to mess with this issue.

This is what I saw as well.
