SPI interface SD Card Reader

[Robert Heller]

I built an adapter for a SPI interface SD Card Reader (https://www.ebay.com/itm/161201009722).  I'm assuming I need to add in an overlay to make this reader show up, but I am not sure what that should be.

Providing logs with 

armbianmonitor -u

 helps with troubleshooting and significantly raises chances that issue gets addressed.

 

Use armbian-config, and go to System -> Hardware. There you can toggle various overlays.

spi-spidev is already enabled.  There is nothing about overlays for the SD Card Reader.

I see.

 

I'd still recommend that you provide armbianmonitor -u output so other get a chance to know what happens inside like which software versions are running.

armbianmonitor -u is bitching about some sort of firewall or network issue.

I am using this kernel:

Linux gollumm64 5.15.25-sunxi64 #22.02.1 SMP Sun Feb 27 09:24:04 UTC 2022 aarch64 aarch64 aarch64 GNU/Linux
With Armbian 22.02.1 Focal

 

Attached is a Fritzing of the adapter I made (mirrored in the Z axis).

 

I expect that I need to create a custom overlay -- I am just not sure if what it should look like.  Or if someone has already done this (or something similar).
