If you have configured the configure debug core-dumps command to write files to the device that you are trying to eject, you are reminded to select another location to write the bebug files to:
Note: The destination of debug core dump is still configured to memorycard.
If a memory card will not be present, it is recommended to use
"configure debug core-dumps" to change the core dump destination.

For more information about removing a USB 2.0 storage device, see the hardware documentation.

To access and read the data on the card, use a PC with appropriate hardware such as a compact flash reader/writer and follow the manufacturer‘s instructions to access the compact flash card and read the data.
