SDHC Update for 8GB SD Card shipments

Synopsis Due to material availability the size and type of SD card shipped with some Technologic Systems products was changed from 2GB SD media to 8GB SDHC media. This change requires a driver update for all SBC using Linux kernels older than 2.6.
Severity Moderate
Class Necessary software change.
Affected All Cirrus Logic-based SBC operating with Linux kernel 2.4.
Status New software available.

Description:

Due to unavailable media, the SD media shipped from Technologic Systems is being changed from 2GB SD to 8GB SDHC. This change will necessitate a new SDHC-compatible Linux SD Card software driver.

Identification:

The affected SD cards are clearly labelled 8GB.

Necessary Action:

The new media will ship with the new driver present, however if the media requires re-imaging, the file here. Simply replace the file 'sdcard.o' with the provided file (renamed to sdcard.o) in both the initrd and Debian partitions before imaging the SD card.
