Hi guys. My jolla stopped auto mounting sdcards yesterday, even the ordinary filesystems like FAT32 on my 32GB sdcard I have been using for long on the phone, the df -h command shows only the phone storage no mention of the sdcard, the lsblk command shows the sdcard total size with 0 part and trying to mount /dev/mmcblk1 returns the error /dev/mmcblk1 not found in /etc/fstab. I know I might need to reset my device to get it fixed but am hoping I could be given a solution to this not just to avoid resetting my phone but also as a fix for anyone facing this same challenge in the future Any help would be so much appreciated

Hello!

Mount command:

mount /dev/mmcblk1p1 /home/nemo/sdcard

Make directory /home/nemo/sdcard (mkdir -p /home/nemo/sdcard)

Maybe your sdcard not have partition then /dev/mmcblk1p1 ->/dev/mmcblk1.

Record in file /etc/fstab has not been(this is not an error).

Try to take out the sdcard, clean the contacts, just carefully rub them on a piece of paper and reinsert the card if it's a bad contact this could help

thanks for the input guys, @filipb92 it is not specific to my sdcard, tried a number of 3 working cards, the system just seems unable to mount /dev/mmcblk1 to /media/sdcard @Jfish I created the /home/nemo/sdcard which has to be a new address altogether as the path of the sdcard on sailfish is media/sdcard and still the /dev/mmcblk1p1 is nonexistent on my system, it is mmcblk1 my system uses. More help needed guys

I had the same problem, only solution was to insert sdcard, when the phone was switched on. Remove sdcard when the phone is off!

@DameCENO By default, the SDcard file system fat32 partition on(/dev/mmcblk1p1). If the partition is not that bad then maybe set up a file system(partition deleted).

On a computer windows OS sdcard opens(mount) normally?
