I have found an interesting library in sourceforge.net
"efsl.0-2-8"
The library currently supports FAT12/16/32 reading & writing on SD-cards, I try to use this and convert for codewarrior..

Now I have the time to continue my work with sd-card...
I have to do the sd-card bootloader.
I think I can use the SPI EEPROM file system to start but instead of the spi EEPROM I use the spi sd-card.
A first problem is that at the start of the bootloader it looks for a new file in the sd-card with fat32 so I have to add the 18k of the sdcard file system in the utasker-boot and add 18k to the flash2 in the .lcf file.

Then I have to understand very well how the bootloader works... I try now..but for me is very difficult...

Please MArk, if you have some suggestion please give me.. if you think this is a wrong way...

thank you very much and best regards
Fabio

Hi Fabio,
 I have been trying with no luck to communicate with an SD card using the SPI bus. After power is supplied I send it 0x40 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x95 to send it into spi mode, and whiche the chip select is low, I send it 0xff tillI get a reply.

I have stuck it on the logic analyser, and all the signals look perfect, except I dont get anything from the SD card ack. in spi mode. So I failed at the first hurdle.

Did you program it with spi mode? If so, how did you initialise the card?

Thanks
Neil

Hi Fabio,

Have implemented the use of the a FAT system using the FatFS file system (http://elm-chan.org/fsw/ff/00index_e.html (http://elm-chan.org/fsw/ff/00index_e.html)).
In my effort to gain as much speed of the system as possible I was wondering when kind of transfer speed you got when accessing the card?

I have on my development board reach 341 Kbyte/s when writing and used 2048 byte of buffer.

Hope to hear from you.
