Try with:

Code:

mount -t vfat /dev/mmcblk1p1 /home/user/MyDocs -o rw,noauto,nodev,noexec,nosuid,noatime,nodiratime,utf8,uid=29999,shortname=mixed,dmask=000,fmask=0133,rodir

It's not DOS, keep track of your backslashes

But, it's not related to Thumb (at all) - if you have further problems, move it somewhere else, please (cssu-testing thread, if you think cssu is to be blamed for your auto-mounting problems, which I seriously doubt).

On a recently flashed device with only the following installed:

- Bootmenu
- Uboot
- KPv52
- Backupmenu
- Recovery console
- CSSU Testing 9.1

I have installed CSSU Thumb. All using HAM.

Checking installed packages I can see that the following have not been pulled from the Thumb repository:

- libxml2 2.8.0+dfsg1-7maemo0+0cssu1+thumb0
- rtcom-eventlogger-async 0.1-maemo1+0cssu0+thumb0

and appear as upgradable packages using plain apt. Maybe dependencies are not correct in the MP?

Besides, before installing CSSU Thumb, my rootfs had 85Mb free, and after installation it 'only' has 88Mb free, and it's an almost pristine system without anything else installed. What am I missing here?

Probably a reboot?

Absolutely not.

By the way, is Busybox-power 1.22.1power1 entering the Thumb repo any time soon?

Do you have a huge number of repos enabled, which might produce a bigger /var/lib/ directory?
Is /var/cache/apt a symlink to some place in /opt or /home ?

No, HAM only knows about Nokia repos, CSSU Testing/Thumb and Extras (no devel, no testing).

/var/cache/apt/ is symlinked to /opt.

Anyway, the question here is that having CSSU Testing, installing Thumb didn't free the expected space.

Thanks for your quick response, it still says /dev/mmcblk1p1 not found. I have to restart each time which is painful.
I actually don't know what caused this problem (mount/umount of mmc card after back cover placement), but it was working totally fine with CSSU testing, once i updated it to thumb it got problem, same thing happened after flashing even so i am clueless.

@kraker_abhy,
Most likely a coincidence. What you describe sounds like a hardware problem, probably a loose magnet (you know that the N900 detects the back cover closed by a magnet sensor, right?). Either way the fact that a reflash has not solved it says clearly that it is not a Thumb problem and as such is off-topic in this thread. Please try posting in one of about a dozen "SD not recognized" threads or start a new one.

Well, some more questions...
Please try get some output of these commands

Code:

du -kx /| sort -n| tail -n 30
dpkg -l | grep thumb
