Re: MMC/SD support on LPC2000

2006-01-17 by Carsten Grøn

Hi Jarda,

yes, I also thought about that idea, only problem is that the card 
needs to be prepared on a PC, but I might be able to live with 
that....Guess it's a kind of "poor mans filesystem" :-)

I have found some information regarding direct disk access, and it 
should be perfectly possible from WinXP/2K...but the "one fixed file 
method" you describe might turn out to be easier overall....

Thanks,
Carsten

Move to quarantaine

This moves the raw source file on disk only. The archive index is not changed automatically, so you still need to run a manual refresh afterward.
