Its a different problem so i am creating a new thread. But i hooked my card reader up to the box booted Knoppix 5.1 and i attempt to format my card. Mke2fs -c -T ext3 -j -l mmc /dev/sdb1 ... It runs its thing. I then try to mount the card mount -t ext3 /dev/sdb1 /mnt/sb1 and lo and behold it fails tells me it doesn't know what file system it is. What am i doing wrong? i tried using cfdisk but i dont think it was working either... because any time i pick a nix file system i cant mount that either. Im quite confused this doesn't make any sense. Any suggestions?
Edit: i reloaded knoppix fired up cfdisk and it shows the card having no formating at all. So i told it to use 83 im pretty sure thats ext3 and it does... but still will not mount im so confused it should be this hard... im gonna test a differnt card reader.
