Hi,
Two things.
1) You don't need the OFFSET=OUT spec with our IP. It turns out there is an extra clock in the wait states for read cycles, so you really have 18 ns to get the data to the OMAP, not 8.
2) Check this "FPGA overvi...

You can also run "udevadm monitor" to watch for udev activity.

Scott,
I'm not sure whats going on. I can't explain why one would work as expected and the other doesn't. Its possible that udev is mounting sda to /media/sda. Trying running a 'grep -r /media/sda /' to see if you can find the file...

Are there any other differences between the dev kits ...
