I bought myself a Creative Nomad IImg mp3 player, which uses USB to copy things on and off the player and, alas, unsupported ... but I also bought a simple tech 64Mb smartmedia card and a smartmedia -> pcmcia adaptor. The pcmcia adaptor works fine with freebsd with this config; # simple technology smartmedia adpator card " " " " config 0x01 "ata" ? Yes, those are 5 spaces and 10 spaces. Weird, but it works. If you pop the smartmedia card out of the adaptor while the adaptor is still in the slot it picks this up as a card removal. I seem to have to remove and re-insert the pcmcia card if I insert it with no smartmedia in it, but other remove/inserts seem to work fine smartmedia cards are _tiny_ ... I copied some mp3s to the card with mtools set with 'mtools_skip_check=1', and they appear in the list on the nomad II and play fine ... So I can at least access the smartmedia half of my memory from freebsd, if not the USB connection and the internal half of the memory.
