    Sd card to pc interface

    Hi all,


    For my project, I want to connect a SD card to a PC via serial port and read a file from the SD card in linux.

    1. Is it possible to read the file from SD card in the terminal?

    2. Is there any c program for reading the file in linux?

    Please, someone help me...

    Thank you

    I can be found either 40 miles west of Chicago, or in a galaxy far, far away.

    1. You need some sort of sd adapter that has a serial rs-232 connector (may exist, but I don't know about them).
    2. You need driver software that can look at such a device on a serial port and see it as a disc.

    Anyway, please describe the hardware you are using (computer and SD reader) and how it connects to the system.
    Sometimes, real fast is almost as good as real time.
