I am trying to mount an sd card that I put into my tablet.

  • 0

I am trying to mount an sd card that I put into my tablet. The sd card is in ext2 format. I tried using BusyBox with the following command in my terminal app on the tablet:

busybox mkfs.ext2

But it seems I need to add some arguments to the command. What commands would I need to add to it? Or is there an easier way to mount the sd card?

I would like to not format the sd card as there is data on it; but whatever it takes to read it as ext2 format is ok.

    Should be busybox mount /dev/block/something /mountpoint. mkfs creates a filesystem like format in Windows

    Or is there an easier way to mount the sd card?

    It usually happens automatically, check busybox mount without arguments if it is already mounted somewhere.
