In some (most?) cases the SD stack does not expose direct MTD access, only block access via an FTL. AFAICT that means neither linux nor userland can do any kind of meaningful test of the SD card, short of destruct testing. For "real" disks, you can talk SMART to the disk controller & ask it to run self tests &c. I've never seen an SD stack talk SMART, but I guess I never really looked. _______________________________________________ luv-main mailing list [email protected] http://lists.luv.asn.au/listinfo/luv-main
