Output of partd -l /dev/mmcblk0: Model: Unknown (unknown) Disk /dev/mmcblk0: 1024MB Sector size (logical/physical): 512B/512B Partition Table: msdos Number Start End Size Type File system Flags 1 31.7kB 1024MB 1024MB primary fat16 boot [root@localhost fedora]# /sbin/lsmod | egrep 'mmc|ricoh|sdhci' mmc_block 18688 2 ricoh_mmc 12544 0 sdhci 23564 0 mmc_core 52800 2 mmc_block,sdhci I don't remember ricoh_mmc loading last time...
