Plug the card in and try to mount it and get the error then run: |
| 24 |
|
| 25 |
lsmod | sort > /tmp/before |
| 26 |
|
| 27 |
Then do the fdisk thing that gets it to work and run: |
| 28 |
|
| 29 |
lsmod | sort > /tmp/after |
| 30 |
|
| 31 |
Now you can use vimdiff (or another diff) |
| 32 |
|
| 33 |
vimdiff /tmp/before /tmp/after |
| 34 |
|
| 35 |
This will show you if any module gets loaded that makes it work. If you |
| 36 |
find a module in after but not in before, add it to |
| 37 |
/etc/modules.autoload.d/kernel-2.6 |
