mmc0: host does not support reading read-only switch. assuming write-enable.
mmc0: new SD card at address 01b0
mmcblk0: mmc0:01b0 SD512 500224KiB
 mmcblk0: p1
  • mount the card:
 # mount /dev/mmcblk0p1 /mnt/mmc/
  • launch the slideshow (here for a 480x272 LCD screen and a system without mouse):
 # export SDL_NOMOUSE=1
