Hardware :: Format A SD Card That's Recognized As A Read-only File?
Feb 25, 2011
I've got some trouble trying to format a SD card. I tried to format it in the GUI and the terminal, but couldn't make it. I couldn't even copy or move any file to the directory in the SD card, even logged as root.
It's a SD card from a digital camera. When I insert it in the camera, it says the card is blocked, so that it's not possible to take any picture.
I tried using "fdisk" to set a new fyle system in it, and tried "mkdosfs" trying to format it under the current file system.
I'm trying to cross-compile glibc 2.2.3 for PowerPC 405 using ELDK 3.0 on a x86_64 machine.
I have unzipped glibc-2.2.3 in a temp directory and configured using:
The configuration seems to run fine but when I do make I get the following error:
This is the error in the config.log file:
I have installed the libgd package using apt-get install libgd2-xpm-dev and I also tried recompiling using libgd2-noxpm-dev package but I still get the same error.
I was attempting to reformat a 16GB MicroSD card in my camera when the battery died mid-way. After that, any time I try to read the card in my camera, it gives me a "Card Error" and does not allow me to reformat it in my camera.
So, I thought I would plug the camera in to the laptop with it set to host the card as media when plugged in as USB, in an attempt to fix the formatting issue.
However, when I plug it in to my linux machine, it does not register as a device (e.g., /dev/sda) due to some errors, therefore I cannot reformat it. Essentially, I think I need to fix the partition table but I'm not sure how to when it doesn't register as a device. code...
I am trying to compile a software using a provided sdk. I suspect that the sdk has some mismatch of the platform library, but I am not sure.
The error I got is
Code:
The libidata.so.42 is there in that folder. I guess the file might be in a big endian. Is there a way to check if the libidata.so.42 i have might be a big endian format, rather than little endian?
If my guess is incorrect, This is a c++ code on fedora x86 machine.
I am presently running Firefox version 3.6.13 under Ubuntu 10.10 and I am trying without any success to play a file in Windows format.I have removed the totem-mozilla pluginI have re-installed gnome-mplayer & gecko-mediaplayer plugins. The ads-on is saying that Gecko Media Player 0.9.9.2 Video Player Plug-in for QuickTime, RealPlayer and Windows Media Player streams using Mplayer is installed.Also try to stream a MMSH to 127.0.0.1:8080 using ASF/WMV, DIVX3 & MP3 from VLC and the only thing I could get from Firefox was: Could not demultiplex streamCan somebody confirm me that the gnome-mplayer& gecko-mediaplayer plugins are capable of reading ASF format
I am trying to format 4 GB sd memory using mkfs.vfat. I want to use the card both in linux and windows so I am formatting with Vfat filesystem. When I format the card from command line with "mkfs.vfat -F 32 /dev/mmcblk1" I am getting a warning message like "unable to get drive geometry, using default 255/63" but the data in the card is erased.
But when I mount the card and checks for the size using df -h its showing 1 GB instead of 4 GB. how to format the SD memory card or any other alternate way to format the card.
I'm not that new in Linux I've been using for years since 2010 mostly, and formatted a number of flash drives with allegedly fat32 fs however, this time I need to be sure I'm formatting it as fat32 for experimental reasons and I can't seen to find a mkfs.fat32, both vfat and fat are fat16 and I don't know what msdos does...
I just installed Ubuntu 11.04. The drive was formatted when I installed so it's 100% Ubuntu. The only major problem I have encountered is that Ubuntu will not recognize my SD cards. I really need to access these cards, all my film footage is on there. I think the internal SD card reader (If such a thing exists) would have been deleted during the installation process. I am a greenthumb to Ubuntu and have never used it before so I am rather stuck...
What are the possible problem when Windows access the file from Ubuntu got Read Only even though have a full permission to read, write and execute the file? Ubuntu to Ubuntu accessing the file there is no problem only Windows got a problem.
I wanted to log some messages on Apache. So I added in VirtualHost definition
Code: CustomLog /var/log/apache2/site-resp_log resp LogFormat "%{X-Forwarded-For} %D %t %T %v %O %b %A %B" resp and restarted apache2. I got following error
Code: * Restarting web server apache2 Syntax error on line 33 of /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/site.com: Unrecognized LogFormat directive % [fail] root@server:/var/log/apache2# vi /etc/apache2/sites-available/sites.com
Here is a page I referred to. I am not able to understand the syntax error.
my school we want to print a magazine but we have problem with the format of the files. We need to create a sheet in A3 format from two sheets in A4 format. I was reading about the pdftk library but it doesn't do what i need.
I got some documents scanned today and had them put in a USB drive. The shopkeeper informed me that it has a virus, yet he transferred the files onto the USB drive. When I put it into my computer ten minutes later, the drive was not getting mounted. I read up and tried installing usbmount. After installing that, I managed to mount the drive. However, the drive was read-only on Ubuntu. On Windows, I found a virus and tried unsuccessfully to delete it (read-only). I tried again on Ubuntu, but didn't manage to delete the infected file (ReCyCleR/sEtuP.exe). I have now backed up all the files on the disk (except, obviously, the ReCyCleR directory). When I try to format the drive using gParted, I get:
i want to know that how we can read date in format of 12/04/2010
in bash shell script
i mean , i want to read date form key board
i want that the user give input in the form of 12/04/2010 and then system varify that the entered date formate is correct or not. if it is valid , system will print echo " valid date" otherwise system will print echo "invalid date format"
Below is results from attempt at formatting my hard drive. As you can see a driver is installed, but not working. Perhaps something is missing? Seems a bit odd that a "unable to read" comes back when disk data is reported. The drive just went through a low level format. BTW this is a fiber channel drive. Also on board are 5 scsi drives. Adaptec raid card. Not sure if that would have any relevance, but there you are.
why my sd card is not recognised (not mounted) when I insert it into the sd card slot...neither if it is already inserted at bootup nor if it is inserted afterwards? I am running Opensuse 11.2 (with KDE4), and I have no reason to suspect the hardware (yet), since it was OK recently with OS 11.1.
I am very new to Linux. I installed ubuntu 9.10 on my Acer 3050 aspire. It works very well except for a few issues. I can not use my 5 in 1 card reader, nothing shows up in "computer" except "cd/dvd" and "file system". My lg phone does not show up when using my data cable as mass storage, and the touch pad is too sensitive, (i have adjusted the settings listed under mouse/touchpad but to no avail. The biggest problems is the card reader and phone. Can this be fixed?
i was trying to format one drive, accidentally formated another, told the format process to stop, and i'm unable to read the folders or files in the drive. i see some greek, odd symbols... But cant open the folders.
I just closed another issue about an unrecognized USB C-Media headset, because the issue seems to be deeper... On an Asus Eee 1001p running Fedora 13, I've run lspci | grep -c audio, which returns 0.
Running alsa-info.sh --no-upload I get a report that tells me that there are no soundcards... Pulseaudio is running though. Also, if I use VirtualBox the sound works fine there (including my USB headset).
I used to have sound, and I'm not sure how it disappeared. I really don't know where to start with this, it's been a pain in the ass all week.
my TV capture card wont even get recognizedit my Windows machine it works finebut here in Ubuntu 9.10 it does nothingit i an older WinTv 150 non-PVRit has the 878 chipset
I just installed and Ubuntu doesn't recognize my wireless card HP dv2945se. I can get a wired connection. I can't figure out what kind of card I have (did the terminal command line, have no idea how to read it) or how to install a driver for this OS (HP's site just lists drivers for Windows). How to get the wireless card recognized?
I've no idea what the heck is going on with my TV capture card, i went to the other posts about my Hauppauge Inc. HDPVR-1250 model 1196 but it all didn't work i have the ubuntu-restricted extras installed but mythtv is not picking up the card. i'm running ubuntu karmic.
