I was wondering if it was possible to make the gumstix act as a MMC drive when plugged in another computer. Would a driver something like that make it possible ? |

I'm trying to get my gumstix to act as a USB file storage gadget. =20 I've got the vfat & g_file_storage module loaded. =20 Followed the directions on http://www.linux-usb.org/gadget/file_storage.html And made a 512K VFAT file system on my development system (as fdisk on the gumstix doesn't have expert mode). =20 All it does is keep repeating this: g_file_storage gadget: full speed config #1 =20 And the Windows box is going nuts trying to figure out what to with it. =20 I tried both removable and naming the file. =20 IN /etc/modules I put: =20 vfat g_file_storage file=3D/backfile =20 Where /backfile is the file created in the directions above. =20 Can anybody help me out here? =20 ___________________ Michael D.

Then on the gumstix you have to specify a file or device to present to the host computer as being the storage device, this could be for instance the mmc card on the gumstix. The usage for g_file_storage is explained here: http://www.linux-usb.org/gadget/file_storage.html You can find a shorter explanation and usage cases by searching the mailing list (yes, I know, that sucks) :-) Good Luck!
