Cannot read files from SD card which works fine under windows
Cannot read files from SD card which works fine under windows
I have a SanDisk 256GB extreme pro SD card for my camera. It works perfectly fine with the camera and with windows, but when I instert it into the card reader on linux (fedora 38) I can't copy any files from it:
cp: Fehler beim Lesen von '.../DCIM/112_FUJI/DSCF2001.RAF': Eingabe-/Ausgabefehler
Loosely translated:
cp: error while reading from '.../DCIM//112_FUJI/DSCF2001.RAF': input/output error
the card is automatically mounted and shows up in the file explorer.
The fdisk command return this:

I tried following this: https://www.reddit.com/r/raspberry_pi/comments/habv0q/fixing_linux_sd_card_reader_issues_inputoutput/
but it didn't change anything
Does anyone have any idea?
EDIT:
I used the wrong fdisk command. I used /dev/sdg1 as opposed to /dev/sdg which is the actual drive. Here is the output of fdisk -l /dev/sdg:

You're viewing a single thread.

It's a bit weird, it looks like the output of fdisk -l /dev/sdg indicates that your SD card is formatted with an HPFS/NTFS/exFAT file system, which is not the typical format for camera SD cards. Camera SD cards are usually formatted as FAT32 or exFAT.
I recommend that you backup everything on that sd card and reformat it to exfat or fat32 yourself on a linux system.I just reformatted it on my linux machine. So I choose exFAT again, because thats what it was before, that's what I know the camera can handle and I have the exact same problem... I think I just surrender and import my photos on my laptop all the time...
The partition type after a format is btw still
NTFS/exFAT/HPFS. So that is just a compatibility thing for it to work on basically all systems I think...Try wiping the drive and then reinserting it. If it still looks the same you either have a failing card or its been put in read only mode at a hardware level.
The card is definitely not broken, if works on windows and in the camera....
The value displayed by fdisk is actually just the textual representation of the numeric partition type you can set when partitioning (7 in this case).
@BentiGorlich
have you tried fat32 instead?No I have not. Maybe I will in the next days. But as I said I kinda surrendered...
