Sounds like a broken card reader or sd driver on your host system to me!

Just in case you don't have this part nailed down, heres the /etc/
fstab from one of my workstations:
# /etc/fstab: static file system information.

# <file system> <mount point> <type> <options> <dump> <pass>
proc /proc proc defaults 0 0

hopefully Yahoo won't mess up the formatting. This shows a pretty
good example of splitting a root filesystem among several different
partitions. In your case, you would probably do something like this:
/dev/sdcard1/part1 / ext3 defaults,ro 0 1
/dev/sdcard2/part1 /var ext3 defaults 0 1
Keeping in mind that I don't know off the top of my head what the name
of your sd device are :-)
