FreeBSD supports the X201 SD card reader
========================================
Today I learned again to never take anything for granted and to
consistently double-check everything.
Prelude
-------
A few years ago I read somewhere that FreeBSD didn't support most
SD-card readers.
Prior to purchasing my Thinkpad X270, I discovered that FreeBSD
supported the built-in SD-card reader. I understood this was one of
the few laptops with a supported reader. A few months after I got it,
I accidentally damaged the card reader by placing the laptop in an
insufficient place.
Thinkpad X201
-------------
Today I tried the SD-card reader on my Thinkpad X201, which runs
FreeBSD 14.0.
Inserting a card in the reader results in a system message on
the command line. Dmesg shows that it becomes /dev/da0.
Just a simple `mount_msdos -ro /dev/da0s1 /mnt' is enough
to read the card.
