This is a firmware for Linksys routers based on great Tomato firmware with additional SD, SDHC, MMC cards support.
Should be the same as original Tomato firmware:
I'm not sure if all above routers support SDHC/MMC hardware mod. This version of SDHC/MMC driver may not work with other then Linksys WRT54G/GS/GL routers.
For routers with USB ports you should use firmware with USB support - it has a higher transfer then SDHC/MMC in SPI (slow) mode.
Example SDHC card initialization log (from syslog):
[INF] mmc: Version: 2.0.1 Parms: major=121 din=2 dout=4 clk=3 cs=7 maxsec=32 rahead=2 dbg=0001 [DBG] mmc: init: power on/insertion initialization... [DBG] mmc: init: CMD0 - reset... [DBG] mmc: init SD: CMD8 - CIC voltage range check... [DBG] mmc: init SD: CMD58 - OCR voltage range check... [DBG] mmc: init SD: ACMD41 - card initialization... [DBG] mmc: init SD: CMD58 - Card Capacity Status check... [DBG] mmc: init SD: CMD10 - Card Identification Register read... [DBG] mmc: init SD: CMD9 - Card Specific Data read... [DBG] mmc: init SD: ACMD51 - SD Config Register read... [INF] mmc: SD Card detected & initialized [DBG] mmc: init - CMD16 - set 512 byte blocksize...

Testing method:
# mount -t ext3 /dev/mmc/disc0/part1 /mmc # sync; date; dd if=/dev/zero of=/mmc/test.bin bs=1024 count=102400; sync; date # sync; date; dd if=/mmc/test.bin of=/dev/null bs=1024 count=102400; sync; date
Results (WRT54GL v1.1 with SD mod, clkfreq=225):
| Card tested | SD driver v1.3.5 | SDHC driver v2.0.1 | USB 2.0 card reader (PC) | |||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|

The binary firmware files are compressed in 7z format. You could also download Firmware Modification Kit to extract the binary firmware or even to repack it with additional or modified files!
This is Tomato firmware with SDHC/MMC support added and many others improvements. The 1.25.01 and 1.28.01 versions have additional features from TomatoVPN mod. The 1.28.02 version is copy of TomatoUSB 1.28.8754 (build e) with SDHC support and without JFFS. For details see changelog.
This is clean original Tomato firmware with SDHC/MMC support added.
