Feeling optimistic today? I tried this the first time I realized that the USB connection doesn't give access to the memory cards... (which is utterly stupid!). I don't remember why it didn't work, but when I tried it today:

root@ereader:~# ln -s /mnt/card/ /mnt/free/card
ln: /mnt/free/card: Operation not permitted

I can't make symlinks within my memory card or on the free partiotion either, only in /dev/tffsa2 (/)...

could it be because the "free" partition and the card are FAT (vfat)? I am no expert at linux/filesystems, but that seems like a possible explanation for me.
