How to read sdcard data

kaiyue — Tue, 15 Sep 2020 02:47:35 GMT

I installed android 8.1 on my i.MX 8QuadXPlus Multisensory Enablement Kit (MEK) and then I inserted a normal sdcard. I want to read the files from the sdcard, but I find that I cannot find the files. What should I do to read the sdcard?

Hi Weidong,

thanks for your idea. I used "mount" to slove the problem. But I have another question based on “mount”. When I want to mount the sdcard, I find it is not possible, because my sdcard file system is NTFS or exFAT. It can only support “mount -t vfat” to mount FAT32 devices. It is not possible for me to make my sdcard as the system of “FAT32”. So is there any ways to make “mount -t ntfs” possible?
Also, I want to ask, is it possible to connect U-disk through TypeC connecter to read U-disk?

my system is android 8.1 on imx8 mek

On how to mount NTFS file system to linux, the link describes it clearly.

Hope it is helpful to you.

Have a nice day!
