Hello to all,
I have a problem with FatFS and i read all related post's but haven't
got any luck running the FatFS with my board (i'm using SPI0).
1.problem: When I first initialize the card using a JTAG, the DSTATUS = 0x00,
which is ok. If I restart the code using a JTAG the initialitation returns 0x02.
But if i remove the card and repeat the initialization it returns 0x00. Any
ideas.
2.problem: when I want to open a file (create a new one) auto_mount returns that
there is no filesystem. I formated the card using FAT and FAT32 but no luck. The
card works fine on a PC. I don't know what to try anymore.
Can someone help me? I used the IAR port of the FatFS for LPC2148 version
005.
Thank you.
Regards, Borut

Yep. You're not tickling it correctly.

Again, not correct initialization I guess.

I can initialize it twice no problem.
As for initialization, I suggest you get down to reading the specifications.
I wrote everything from access to the SD simplified I/O specs and I don't
expect my code to run on all MMC cards (specs 4.1-4.3 I have, nothing else).
I can't say why your specific card isn't working. Kingston-branded cards
seem to be sourced from multiple manufacturers for the *same* card. I don't
think this will be true for Sandisk, but I do have Sandisk cards that report
different versions for nominally the same card.
How come you're still running CrossWorks? ;-)

Some additional info: my Transcend 512MB card was recognised ac
MMCCard, when i did f_mkfs i was able to open/create a file but when
i tried to write to it i got FR_DENIED. Also, under Win XP my SDcard
is now only 1,88MB in size. I tried formating it again under win but
i can't change size of the card.

Hi There,
I too am having exactly the same issue with a 1GB micro-sd. LPC2148, FatFS, under
Crossworks. Same scenario, same errors (though am trying to run it as a process under
TNKernel). I'm working on it too but if you have a resolution then please do share! I will
too, of course.
All the best,
Ed

Hi Paul,
I talked to some of my friends and they all said that it is great that
you offer personal licences. and also i thing the price is totaly
affordable. For that money you REALLY get a lot. Just one question:
V2? Are you preparing something? :)
Thanks
