I have a udisk(My MP3), which is fat32 format, and the fs block size is
4096(report by u-boot).
enable USB and FAT support for u-boot.
do "usb start" cause the system to restart. after looking into the u-boot
code, I find that the "DEFAULT_SECTOR_SIZE" in disk/part_dos.h is too
small(512) to fit a fat sector, so system run into a "out of range" trouble
when it go into usb_storage.c/usb_stor_read() function.
and I also need to change the "FS_BLOCK_SIZE" in include/fat.h to 4096,
otherwise, the "fatinfo/fatls/fatread" would run into the same trouble.
These is also check in u-boot-2010.06 code.
The FAT doc say the number of bytes per sector will be one of 512 , 1024,
2048, 4096, so i guess that I may need to use something like "malloc" to
alloc the sector buffer ? But it seems difficult to do.
Any idea ?
Thanks.
