/etc/vold.fstab file

[Bruce Beare]

I'm trying to get an sdcard to mount via vold and am running into a
bit of trouble. I've replaced /etc/vold.conf with /etc/vold.fstab:

dev_mount sdcard /mnt/sdcard 3 /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:01.0/
mmc_host/mmc0 /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:02.3/gadget/lun0

I selected "3" instead of "auto" above because that's the VFAT
partition on the sdcard (we're currently booting from SD). Vold
doesn't mount the card and I don't see anything like an error from it.
I ran it with strace (modified /etc/init.rc) and although vold opens /
sys/block, it does not seem to open anything else under /sys (such as /
sys/device/.. as above).

Clearly... I'm missing a key concept here. Is there some documentation
on "howto" use vold?

Also, I see in CommandListenter.cpp that vold has what appears to be a
CLI. How do I send commands to the running daemon?

Thank you,
Bruce

Hi,

      Any specific reason to replace vold.conf with vold.fstab?

Warm Regards,
Anil
