You're talking of http://docs.openmoko.org/trac/ticket/1743 ?

The glamo_mci.sd_max_clk workaround seems to not apply in my case,
although I'm not completely sure.

Same here I think although my card wasn't listed initially in
http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/Supported_microSD_cards

I suspect there's something nasty around, as this is the 3rd thread
about the same subject in 3 days (both on community and support
lists).

I guess all should try and review the ticket above and add reference
info in the wiki, to try and identify the problem more precisely.

Hope this helps.
