HP photosmart 7660 and mounting of CF in memory card reader

[jasa]

Hi,

I have used my WL500b with USB Flash Disk in the past successfully. Now I am trying to connect HP photosmart 7660 to WL500b and share it. The printer works fine over USB but I need to get working also memory card reader with Compact Flash cards. I made good progress, but I miss information about the way how auto-mounting of USB Mass Storage Devices works. Could you help me, please?

I have found following in the system log:

It seems that it tries to mount devices dev 08:01 - 08:04

The memory card is not mounted and it is therefore not accessible through FTP.

I have found following devices:

[admin@(none) root]$ ls -l /dev/scsi/host0/bus0/target0/lun0
brw------- 1 admin root 8, 0 Jan 1 1970 disc
brw------- 1 admin root 8, 1 Jan 1 1970 part1
brw------- 1 admin root 8, 2 Jan 1 1970 part2
brw------- 1 admin root 8, 3 Jan 1 1970 part3
brw------- 1 admin root 8, 4 Jan 1 1970 part4

Mounting of part1-part4 fails, but mount of disc is SUCCESSFUL!

[admin@(none) root]$ mount /dev/scsi/host0/bus0/target0/lun0/disc /tmp/mnt
[admin@(none) root]$ ls /tmp/mnt
dcim

It seems that the router tries to mount partitions 1-4 but does not try to mount whole disk. Is there a chance how to change it?

Thanks in advance for help.

My firmware: 1.9.2.7-7c

BTW. I have compiled hypertunnel server (hts) for WL500b for tunneling of connection through HTTP proxy. Just in case anybody was interested in it.

I need to get working also memory card reader with Compact Flash cards. I made good progress, but I miss information about the way how auto-mounting of USB Mass Storage Devices works.

I have the same kind of problem with the stupid idea of sharing memory cards (CF, SD, etc.) through a card reader connected to USB port of my WL500G (Oleg's 1.9.2.7c FW)

At the moment, I'm obliged to manually mount the device through telnet each time I change a card.

Thus, I'm for sure interrested in an automatic solution...

[Oleg]

You need to create MBR record on the card and format first partition.

[jasa]

I am affraid that MBR will be not the solution. The memory card is formated in a camera and camera may have problems with cards formated in different device. I have some doubts and also bad expirience from past.

I will give it a try, but I do not want too lose important pictures in future because of wrong decision now.

I see mounting of memory card without MBR as much safer and more feasible option. You know, cameras are not usualy powered by Linux and source code is rarely included so I cannot correct the camera firmware ;) .

Thanks,
