4. Installation Under Linux

This document was modified from
"http://www.linux-usb.org/USB-guide/book1.html" which was written by Brad Hards.

System Requirement:
kernel versions 2.2.7 and later contain the USB code.

Install Card Reader step by step:

1. Backup Kernel

#cd /usr/src
#cp linux-2.4 linux-2.4.bak
#cp /boot/vmlinuz vmlinuz.bak

2. configure USB into kernel. Use of "make menuconfig" is recommended.

Under "USB support", you need to select "Support for USB". You also need to
select either UHCI (Intel PIIX4, VIA, ...) support, UHCI Alternate Driver (JE)
support or OHCI-HCD (Compaq, iMacs, OPTi, SiS, ALi, ...) support. Which one you
select is dependent on what kind of motherboard or adapter you have.

 select "USB Mass Storage support"
 select "Preliminary USB Device Filesystem"
 select "SCSI support"
 select "SCSI disk support"
 select "/proc support"

5. make dep (advanced user)

4. Append one line into /etc/modules.conf, then reboot Linux

options scsi_mod max_scsi_luns=8

*********************************************************************
 . Rebuild the kernel and the modules (if you configured to build as modules),
and install the new kernel and the new modules. Reboot the system.
If you are using modules, you need to load the following modules:
a. usbcore.o
b. usb-uhci.o, uhci.o or usb-ohci.o
c. usb-storage.o

20

USB2.0 Card reader Manual

Inspect the kernel logs. If there isn't anything that could be USB related,
likely causes are use of the wrong driver (UHCI when you needed OHCI or
OHCI when you needed UHCI), not physically installing the hardware,
a BIOS configuration that disables USB or stuffing up the configuration or
installation of the kernel.

 Use the mount command: mount -t usbdevfs none /proc/bus/usb. Note that the

'none' keyword is arbitrary.
If you do not want to have to mount the filesystem each time you reboot the
system,you can add the following to /etc/fstab after the /proc entry.none .
/proc/bus/usb usbdevfs defaults 0 0
*********************************************************************

5. Edit /etc/fstab
The exact syntax depends on the Card Reader. The best way is to make suitable
entries in /etc/fstab. The suitable entries for Card Reader would be:

/dev/sda1 /mnt/sm auto noauto,user 0 0
/dev/sdb1 /mnt/cf auto noauto,user 0 0
/dev/sdc1 /mnt/mmc auto noauto,user 0 0
/dev/sdd1 /mnt/ms auto noauto,user 0 0

6 . To check if all flash card has been attached, type the following line at console
mode cat /proc/scsi/scsi
Linux will response as follows if the flash cards are attached successfully
[root@localhost root]# cat /proc/scsi/scsi

Attached devices:
Host: scsi0 Channel: 00 Id: 00 Lun: 00
Vendor: Generic Model: USB Storage-SMC Rev: I03A
Type: Direct-Access ANSI SCSI revision: 02
Host: scsi0 Channel: 00 Id: 00 Lun: 01
Vendor: Generic Model: USB Storage-CFC Rev: I03A
Type: Direct-Access ANSI SCSI revision: 02
Host: scsi0 Channel: 00 Id: 00 Lun: 02
Vendor: Generic Model: USB Storage-MMC Rev: I03A
Type: Direct-Access ANSI SCSI revision: 02
Host: scsi0 Channel: 00 Id: 00 Lun: 03

21

USB2.0 Card reader Manual

Vendor: Generic Model: USB Storage-MSC Rev: I03A
Type: Direct-Access ANSI SCSI revision: 02

7. Create matching mount points in the actual file system:
mkdir /mnt/sm
mkdir /mnt/cf
mkdir /mnt/mmc
mkdir /mnt/ms

8. Mount Card Reader: Mount the detected flash card to a directory, please type the
following lines, then you can access the content of flash cards from the mapping
directory.
mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/sm
mount /dev/sdb1 /mnt/cf
mount /dev/sdc1 /mnt/mmc
mount /dev/sdd1 /mnt/ms

Note:
Note that the above entries assume you have no other SCSI devices.If you do have
other devices, then the USB disk may not be /dev/sda, but could instead be /dev/sdb,
/dev/sdc or some other device.
