I have trouble with some SD Cards so I enabled debug output from SD driver with sd_debug=on in /boot/config.txt. I have looked with journalctl and checked the files in /var/log and in /tmp but cannot find any debug information.

Where to find the debug output from SD driver?

  • I believe you might need to use dtparam=sd_debug=on instead. If that doesn't change anything, check sudo vcdbg log msg to get logging information from the VideoCore, it might be output there. Posting this as a comment because I have not tested any of this. – Hitechcomputergeek Sep 21 '18 at 22:05
  • @Hitechcomputergeek Thanks, that was it. With dtparam=sd_debug=on I get the debug messages. Please make your comment an answer. I will accept it. – Ingo Sep 23 '18 at 9:13

The correct syntax to enable this is dtparam=sd_debug=on. After putting this in config.txt, debug information from the SD driver should show up in dmesg.
