Not able to transfer files from PC to A20-OLinuXino-MICRO-4GB

[Gokul Dhanwate]

Hello everybody,
I have A20-OLinuXino-MICRO-4GB with pre-built android installed.
I have to transfer files from my development PC to board.
But I can't transfer files by any means. I have tried to transfer files by using -
1.MicroSD card but when I insert microsd card it shows device node but doesn't mounts(I tried mount command).
2.SD/MMC Not supported in android.
3.Ethernet - can't  use ssh or scp as android doesn't have ssh server.
4.Removable media(pen drive) - Doesn't mount

What should I do?
How to transfer files from PC to board?
Any advice or help is appreciable.
Thanks in advance !

If you have the Android development installed on your PC use ADB, as John suggested, from the command line. The push and pull commands can transfer files to your Android device via the Mini USB port.

Not sure what ADB is, do a Google for it. Tons of online help.

A flash disk should mount by the way but it depends on the Android build you are using if this is enabled or not. It should be. Open file manager in Android and click on the USB tab and see if it shows up.

A custom Android build is the best solution as you can build it the way you want it.

Finally I transfered files using pen drive.
