Michael, you said you tried "cat > foo.txt", but can you please try to "touch foo.txt" as Bill originally requested ?
If that comment still gives you an I/O error, is there any chance you can try with a different SD card, or try creating a file on the SD card from your computer ? I/O errors suggest some kind of corruption in the file system on the card, or possibly even the card itself being damaged. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1474218 Title: Camera function does not save photos on SD card To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/camera-app/+bug/1474218/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
