Gene, Exactly WHAT did you do. Do you have a command history which shows the exact commands you ran? What are you trying to do: are you trying to add a firmware file to an existing image? [In other words: what was there on the card before you started? ] How are you mounting the card on the other machine / printer or whatever? > I copyed the file to my /home/gene partition, mkdir .local/sdb1 (which is > what dmesg calls it when the 32G micro-sd in inserted into the card reader) > Spent 20 minutes verifying I owned the whole path, chowned the file to me, > then finally was able copy it to the micro0-sd. unmounted the card and took > it to the printer.
