I'd never thought about this with the 6k. Is there a 1gb limit in addressing SD cards? I've tried both of my 2gb cards and it won't mount either of them - at least not with the default settings in fstab anyway (haven't really dug in to the issue yet).
Before I bang that flat spot on my forehead - is there a 1gb limit? If not I'll go about figuring out why these cards won't mount. Thanks! |

I have heard (on these forums) that if you format the SD card with the command: mke2fs -T news /dev/mmcda1 This will make a file system with 4k blocks per inode (and this is supposed to work). I don't have an SD card larger than 1G, so I haven't had a chance to try it. Let us know! I hope this helps, Craig... |

I did pick up a SD to CF adaptor <http://cgi.ebay.com/SD-MMC-Card-to-CompactFlash-CF-TypeII-Adapter-Converter_W0QQitemZ150102635466QQcategoryZ50526QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem> Using this, I can mount a 2GB SD card (in the CF slot). Hope this helps, Craig... |
