[Bug 1034573] Re: cannot access beyond 1 GB on 2 GB SD flash memory

 

efa,this bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been any activity
in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue? If so,
could you please test for this with the latest development release of
Ubuntu? ISO images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-
live/current/ .

If it remains an issue, could you please run the following command in
the development release from a Terminal
(Applications->Accessories->Terminal), as it will automatically gather
and attach updated debug information to this report:

apport-collect -p linux <replace-with-bug-number>

Also, could you please test the latest upstream kernel available following https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds ? It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. Please do not test the daily folder, but the one all the way at the bottom. Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please comment on which kernel version specifically you tested. If this bug is fixed in the mainline kernel, please add the following tags:
kernel-fixed-upstream
kernel-fixed-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER

where VERSION-NUMBER is the version number of the kernel you tested. For example:
kernel-fixed-upstream-v3.11-rc5

This can be done by clicking on the yellow circle with a black pencil icon next to the word Tags located at the bottom of the bug description. As well, please remove the tag:
needs-upstream-testing

If the mainline kernel does not fix this bug, please add the following tags:
kernel-bug-exists-upstream
kernel-bug-exists-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER

As well, please remove the tag:
needs-upstream-testing

Once testing of the upstream kernel is complete, please mark this bug's
Status as Confirmed. Please let us know your results. Thank you for your
understanding.

Title:
  cannot access beyond 1 GB on 2 GB SD flash memory

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  I connected a 2 GB SD flash memory, which is a camera memory with photos.
  The device is mounted, shown as 2 GB drive with "msdos" file system.
  I can see the whole list of memory content.
  The .jpg images in first GB are accessible (I can open them), while accessing images saved to 2nd GB return an IO access error.
  The syslog show the attached messages.

  Note: The same SD flash memory with the same HW is all readable with
  WinXPsp3, so there are no HW limitations.
