The execution of the ADSCopy.inf is slower when the SDCard is slot in the PCMCIA adapter even if no access to the external card is made
My ADSCopy.inf line is as following '\FlashFX Disk\App.exe' '\Temp'
I'm logging the debug port; it takes less than 100ms when SD Card isn't slot in and takes near 2sec when SD Card is slot in.
Do you have any clue to solve this
Thanks

Interesting. You're using a PCMCIA-to-SD adapter? I don't know that we've tried one of those on the GCX. What model is it?
Is the two-second delay in ADSCopy a problem in your application, or is it representative of a slow-down somewhere else that is an issue? |

The GCX doesn't support MMC, so I can't speak to how it's going to support it through this adapter.
My bet is that the adapter makes SD, MMC, xD, Memory Stick and other storage devices it supports look like a standard PCMCIA mass storage device, but there's no way to tell how it does it by looking at it. Do you know what file system the card is formatted as? That might be one clue. See topic 1162.
We may be able to evaluate the adapter if you want to send it to us. Otherwise I'd recommend using a CompactFlash card and a straight-through PCMCIA adapter. |

If you run ADSCopy manually after the system is running do you still see the 2s delay, or is the delay simply an added 2s to your device startup time? If it's the latter, it's may well be that the FSD (which is likely at a higher priority than ADSCopy) is taking a while to mount the MMC card, and that expresses itself as the system taking longer to fully boot. |

The fact is as following
A)First time I boot the system with SDCard not plugged 1- The first ADSCopy\Copy file is really fast for each of the 5 file I try to copy (maybe 100ms per file) 2- The second time that I start the ADS Copy (without SDCard) The 5 files take near 10 seconds (2 sec. per file) (and it still the same for other ADS copy) * even if the PCMCIA card is not plug it's the same thing
B)First time I boot the system with SDCard plugged 1- The first ADSCopy\Copy file is the same as followin for each of the 5 file the copy takes near 2 sec
* So maybe the system wasn't completly boot when the SD Card is'nt slot-in
* The 2 sec delay is kind of strange anyway because the file size is 6 to 25 kb max
For the file system, I havent try it yet but when I put the Windows image on the SD Card and ask the device to update it, I'v got the error like topic:1163
Thanks
