gurus,
just bought a new sandisk 256mb sd card, popped it into my c700, and... nothing. although the SD icon shows up in tray, system info recognizes the space, file utility program sees the card, as soon as i try to create a folder or move a file over, it won't let me. Popup window says "cannot make folder" or "cannot copy file". lock tab is set to allow write, meaning i have not set it to copy protect. do i just have a bad sd, or is there some sort of pre-formatting i need to do? thanks! daydok |

i just based it on the quick how-to doc for the sd card:
#umount /dev/mmcda1 #mkfs.msdos /dev/mmcda1 #mount /dev/mmcda1 /usr/mnt.rom/card it formatted as vfat, and i was all set! thanks again
