[OpenIndiana-discuss] SDHC card support in OI?

[Bryan N Iotti]

Hi, sorry it took so long to answer.

rmformat does not see the reader.

Inserting a regular SD card makes no difference compared to a SDHC card.

/var/adm/messages contains this line:
 Sep 24 20:09:17 Spook pci_pci: [ID 370704 kern.info] PCI-device: pci103c,30dc at 9,1, sdhost0 

and the same PCI ID is used in these lines:
Sep 24 20:09:17 Spook blkdev: [ID 348765 kern.info] Block device: blkdev at 0, blkdev0
Sep 24 20:09:17 Spook genunix: [ID 936769 kern.info] blkdev0 is /pci at 0,0/pci 8086,2448 at 1e/pci103c,30dc at 9,1/blkdev at 0
Sep 24 20:09:17 Spook genunix: [ID 408114 kern.info] /pci at 0,0/pci8086,2448 at 1e/pci103c,30dc at 9,1/blkdev at 0 (blkdev0) online
Sep 24 20:09:22 Spook devfsadmd[463]: [ID 937045 daemon.error] failed to lookup dev name for /pci at 0,0/pci8086,2448 at 1e/pci103c,30dc at 9,1/blkdev at 0

My interpretation would be that the drive is recognized and bound to a block device but devfsadm can't use it because it doesn't know what /dev it points to.

Interesting, as I've often used a reconfigure boot, but to no avail I guess.

Thank you James for suggesting I check the logs. Any other ideas as to what I can try?
