 |

Hey there,
since my digital camera just wrecked my SD-Card's FS (with about half a gig of contents... yeah I know, backups, backups...), I want to get the built-in card reader of my laptop running, extract the contents and extract the pictures/vids with tools like photorec.
However, some info first:
It's an Fujitsu-Siemens AMILO M 3438G. I am using kernel 2.6.20-gentoo and I already read through the usb mass storage and the SD/MMC card reader howto on gentoo-wiki.com.
this is what dmesg first showed:
| Code: | usb 1-3: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 3
usb 1-3: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice
scsi4 : SCSI emulation for USB Mass Storage devices
usb-storage: device found at 3
usb-storage: waiting for device to settle before scanning
scsi 4:0:0:0: Direct-Access Generic STORAGE DEVICE 9144 PQ: 0 ANSI: 0
sdc: too big for this kernel. Use a kernel compiled with support for large block devices.
SCSI device sdc: 0 512-byte hdwr sectors (0 MB)
sdc: Write Protect is off
sdc: Mode Sense: 02 00 00 00
sdc: assuming drive cache: write through
sd 4:0:0:0: Attached scsi removable disk sdc
usb-storage: device scan complete |
So I saw that "sdc: too big for this kernel. Use a kernel compiled with support for large block devices." line and enabled large block device support in the kernel conf. I found this very suspicious, since the card is just 1GB and the large block device is for 2TB and up, but well, it was worth a try.
However, after I rebooted, dmesg showed this:
| Code: | usb 1-3: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 4

So that didn't help either. Btw, I also got a lsusb -v, with the large device blocks enabled and right after plugging the SD-Card in (narrowed to the interesting part):

However, the output of lsusb -v was a bit different, when I did not have large block support enabled. E.g. I didn't have those error messages at the bottom.
So, I am pretty lost now. I followed both tutorials, tried some stuff on my own and asked the IRC channels for help. If anyone got a clue on how to get this card reader to work, please tell me 
Cheers,
