Mounting usb in lpc3250 board (ported with linux version 2.6.34)

Hi,

I am having LPC3250 board,which i have configured in Host mode,using the menuconfig(linux kerenl 2.6.34).When i am attaching a USB device to the usb port,the device is getting detected which i am think based on my below observation
1.USB led blinking
2.In the linux ported on lpc3250 board file system when i am using this command mdev -s , sda is appearing in the dev directory


But when i try to mount the usb using this command mount /dev/sda1 /media1
it is giving this problem as mentioned below

that states it all, you are not trying to mount /dev/sda1, you are mounting /dev/sda that or the USB device has not been formatted properly.

i would not use /media as your mount point as that is by default on many Linux systems the upper directory for auto-mounter like your CD or DVD or USB devices.

to manually mount first verify that it is properly formatted (use fdisk -l) that is a lower case L, not a one, to verify what the format type is as well as its partition table.

then after you know for a fact what the device is formatted as and what its partition table looks like you can mount it as follows:

mount -t ext3 /dev/sdaX /mnt/USB

replace X with the proper partition number and create /mnt/USB to mount the usb drive. also replace ext3 with what ever format type you have on the flash drive.

Sir,

I tried the mount -t ext2 /dev/sda /mnt/USB but same reset problem is coming.

In current scenario once power to board is turned on ,Linux 2.6.39.2 kernel version boots up ,and then initial file system ram-disk runs on the board,

As per your response what i understood is that pen-drive should be formatted with the same file system which is running on the board/PC machine.So i have reached to following conclusion that we need to run ext2 or ext3 file system on the lpc3250 board and format pen drive with same compatible file format

please guide me if i am correct in my understanding.

if i am right can you please provide me link to install ext2 or ext3 file system on ram-disk.

Sir,

following is the procdeure i used to mount the USB

### Application running ...
~ #
~ # mkdir sys
~ # mount -t sysfs sysfs /sys
~ # mkdir mnt
~ # cd mnt/
/mnt # mkdir usb

~ # ls

following is the output of the command executed on our lpc3250 board

Why are you creating /sys that directory typically is already there?

~ # ls
bin etc home linuxrc proc sys usr
dev ftp lib mnt sbin tmp var

following is the output of the command executed on our lpc3250 board

also you did not mount the drive properly, were is the partition you are mounting? you have no partition number in your command. what is the output of

# fdisk -l

again that is a lower case L, not a one.

sir the above output is on the LPC3250 develpoment board
When the kernel boots up and intial ramdisk file system comes up sys dir is not there.
I created sys directory and the executed this command :
~# mount -t sysfs sysfs /sys
~ # ls
bin etc home linuxrc proc sys usr
dev ftp lib mnt sbin tmp var


output of the command:
root@amit-desktop:/home/amit# fdisk -l

now that you have the fdisk printout you can read the partition number to use. earlier you posted that you used the following command that failed:

# mount -t ext2 /dev/sda /mnt/usb/

correct, that command will ALWAYS fail as you did not tell the system what partition you wanted to mount. you just tried to mount a device. can not be done. In addition to that you also were trying to tell the system to mount a device that is already mounted with 8 partitions.

Instead you need to use the following command:

# mount -t ext2 /dev/sdb1 /mnt/usb/

please use the code and quote tags it really does make life much simpler to read what you are doing.

I executed the command

# mount -t ext2 /dev/sdb1 /mnt/usb/

but same problem coming
mount: mounting /dev/sdb1 on /mnt/usb/ failed: Invalid argument

First of all fdisk command not working on my development board,how to make it work ???

from start point :
As soon as power is given to development board and after the system is ready ,i attach my usb it is giving the reset messages as below

usb 1-1: reset full speed USB device using usb-ohci and address 10 usb 1-1: reset full speed USB device using usb-ohci and address 10 sd 8:0:0:0: [sda] Unhandled error code sd 8:0:0:0: [sda] Result: hostbyte=0x07 driverbyte=0x00 sd 8:0:0:0: [sda] CDB: cdb[0]=0x28: 28 00 00 00 00 02 00 00 02 00 end_request: I/O error, dev sda, sector 2 EXT2-fs (sda): error: unable to read superblock usb 1-1: reset full speed USB device using usb-ohci and address 10 usb 1-1: reset full speed USB device using usb-ohci and address 10

Since I know the fdisk output on linux system is /dev/sdb1

So I created a node in the development board as follows

Mknod /dev/sdb1 b(device type) 80(major number) 1(minor number)

It got created

Then I created mnt directory as its not there in file system

Mkdir mnt
Cd mnt
Mkdir usb
Cd ../

Then I executed the command

Mount –t ext2 /dev/sdb1 /mnt/usb

mount: mounting /dev/sdb1 on /mnt/usb/ failed: Invalid argument

Sir what is wrong i am not getting

Someone suggested to mount the ext2 or ext3 file system on the initial ramdisk filesystem running on the board.My douth is,that is this correct,and if we can do this how can i install the ext2/ext3 file system,i searched net but did not found any thing.

Sir,

Today i mounted the usbdevfs file system on the intial ramdisk filesystem running on the board as follows

mount -t usbfs none /proc/bus/usb

~ # mount

rootfs on / type rootfs (rw) /dev/root on / type ext2 (rw,relatime,errors=continue,user_xattr,acl) proc on /proc type proc (rw,relatime) none on /proc/bus/usb type usbfs (rw,relatime)

# ls -l /proc/bus/usb

dr-xr-xr-x 2 root root 0 Jan 1 00:00 001 -r--r--r-- 1 root root 0 Jan 1 00:07 devices

but as per document i am refering to say this should also come in the output which i am not getting


-r--r--r-- 1 root root 0 Sep 19 22:30 drivers

~ # cat /proc/scsi/usb-storage/0

Host scsi0: usb-storage Vendor: General Product: USB Flash Disk Serial Number: 00000000000005A6 Protocol: Transparent SCSI Transport: Bulk Quirks:

but in document following is the output

Host scsi1: usb-storage Vendor: Generic Product: Mass Storage Device Serial Number: None Protocol: Transparent SCSI Transport: Bulk GUID: 0ed166800000000000000000 Attached: Yes/No

i tried mounting the device but it failed
~ # mkdir mnt
~ # mknod /dev/sdb1 b 8 1
~ # mount -t ext2 /dev/sdb1 /mnt/
mount: mounting /dev/sdb1 on /mnt/ failed: No such device or address

What i think is drivers are missing.
Sir can you please guide me what should i do next
