I tried with the switch in the up and the down position and tried to
mount.
In both cases I am getting:
WARN: `/dev/mmcblk0p1' is write-protected, mounting read-only.
Could be what senses the switch position in the reader isn't working.
Are other cards mountable as writable, in the same reader?
On SD cards, it's not really a switch, there's no electronics behind it,
it's just an object that's felt, or looked through, in the reader.
Rather like the record protect holes in old fashioned cassette tapes.
