Subject: Re: Developping drivers for G Mini 120?

Re: Developping drivers for G Mini 120?

Try:

modprobe usbcore
dmesg -c
modprobe usb-uhci
dmesg -c
mount -t usbdevfs none /proc/bus/usb
dmesg -c
modprobe usb-storage
dmesg -c
fdisk -l
mount /dev/sd<?> /mnt/archos

I've found this to work - I still get problems copying data
over when memory buffers get full. I use scripts with sync
to get over this.
