Ok, here goes the sequence:
umount /mnt
sync
eject it
plug in to Fujitsu Lifebook 656TX (I think that is the model)
/etc/rc.d/rc.pcmcia restart (needed to do this because it did not
autodetect when I plugged in)
** info from cardmgr **
hde: Integral Peripherals 8340PA, 325MB w/ 32kB Cache, CHS=7771/16/54
hdf: no response (status = 0xa1)
ide2 at 0x100-0x107,0x10e on irq 3
hde: hde1 hde2
(by the way this notebook is using pcmcia-cs-2.9.12 w/ kernel 2.0.30)
mount -t ext2 /dev/hde2 /mnt
cd /mnt
mkdir test
cd test
cp ~/.bash_profile test
ls -l test
** info from ls -l **
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 14 Nov 20 14:31 test
cd
umount /mnt
sync
eject it
plug in to pc110, then in pc110
mount -t ext2 /dev/hdc2 /mnt
cd /mnt
ls -l test
** info from ls -l **
ls: test: No such file or directory
