I've had reports of pcmcia adapters working, as well as first hand experience with a usb adapter working. There has been one report of SD reader connected via an ATA interface to a cardbus bridge that works, but I've not been able to confirm it directly. : I have recently started working on support for a SD card reader in my HP : Pavilion but then noticed very quickly that there seems to be no SD card : specification available unless an NDA with the SD Card Association... That's not entirely true. You can get a slightly redacted version w/o one: http://www.sdcard.org/sd_memorycard/index.html : So I suppose reading SD cards directly on fBSD is just not possible -- my : suggestion would be an external card reader, usually USB. Please do correct : me if this is wrong, and I'd be happy go on searching for a way to access : Winbond W83L51xD Cardreaders. There, you are right. Warner
