MMC: CRC Errors with 2GB cards

Hi,

I am seeing a lot of CRC errors happening with CMD25 on a couple
of Transcend 2GB cards (specifiation version 1.1). However, if
I apply the following patch, I see no errors being reported

printk(KERN_ERR "%s: status = %08x\n",


I noticed that at times the card is not actually in transfer
state when it recieves the second consecutive
MULTIPLE_BLOCK_WRITE cmd. As per the simplified specification
available, all class 4 commands including CMD25 can be issued
only in tra state, though its also specified that READY_FOR_DATA
indicates whether the card can accept new data.

I am just wondering if I have set of broken cards. Any pointers
in this regard?

Thanks and Regards,
Roopesh.
