mmc gets rarely automounted.
storage media is new.

Any idea what to do?

Thks 4 ur attention.

CaptainBlood,

Not all card readers are equal. Not all cards are equal either.

Over the years, as memory cards have got bigger, standards have changed, so old hardware knows nothing of new standards.

Code: Select all

mmc0: new ultra high speed SDR104 SDHC card at address 0007

suggets the reader and card are not compatible.

It looks like the kernel driver is trying to determine the voltages it should use on the data/address signal lines and either the card or reader does not know how to do that.

Have you used ultra high speed (SDXC) cards with that reader?
Can you try the card in another reader?

I've thrown the the hardware package away.
Nevertheless seems to be a

Code: Select all

SanDisk microSDHC Ultra 16 Gb UHS-1

Because I like lean kernel configs, I had to update it to get the device working.

I've just successfully tried the new device with my old HTC Wildfire which is 4 to 5 years old. Doing so allowed me to insure it hasn't be bricked for what ever reason.

The initial mobile phone SD card has successfully been mounted on gentoo at first attempt.

Nevertheless in pretty sure data stored in the new SD card have been copied via gentoo,
And I'm 100% sure device got mounted for a while after a few trials @ kernel settings.

Old SD card returns

CaptainBlood,

That's two different generations of cards.

The old one is

Code: Select all

Jan 30 17:10:03 n kernel: mmc0: new high speed SDHC card at address 0001

The new one is

Code: Select all

mmc0: new ultra high speed SDR104 SDHC card at address 0007

Notice the "ultra" snuck in there.

They are supposed to be backwards compatible, with the emphasis on "supposed to be".
The idea is that ultra high speed cards can operate at the old speeds and voltages and signalling methods if needed.

Hi,
It just so happend new sd card got automounted in lxde @ boot.
Any tip what and where to grab information that could help to troubleshoot this issue?

I see it's an old thread,
I have the exact same issue with a new SDHC card from Sandisk.
It mounted without issues the first time, formated and made filesystems, copied files, booted raspberry pi with it fine.
Now when I put the card into my gentoo laptop it's not recognised anymore. It isn't recognised on Ubuntu machine either. It is recognised on Windows 10, I can format it and make filesystems just fine.
It runs on the raspberry pi too.
When I formated it with windows the first time I could see it again from gentoo, make filesystems and copy files. After I formatted it with windows for the second time I cannot do it anymore.
This is the only error message I see:

Code: Select all

mmc0: cannot verify signal voltage switch
[ 5054.210538] mmc0: error -110 whilst initialising SD card

I have a good few years old laptop so I guess it's reader/card incompatibility, it is a suspicious card though: bought it as 64G, has 64G printed on it, is in fact 128G. Tested read/write speed and it's ok, system on raspberry pi boots fine. Packaging looks legitimate so does the card.

Is there any hope I can get the old card reader working with it or do I have to buy a new sd card reader?

Is there a way to try and debug what goes awry?
