Pelrun has posted a first-crack at a driver for mounting a >1gig SD card. The discussion is here: https://www.oesf.org/forums/index.php?showt...t=75&p=164979&# The driver is for Sharp ROM and will work with 2-4 gig cards (not the newer format).
I'm going to try it out when I get home (and purchase a 2 gig card). |

One is for the tkcrom, one is for the Sharp 3.1x roms. They both let you access sd cards larger than 1GB and let you have home on sd.  Cheers |

I primarily use the 6000, and have the 5500 as a backup. I'm much more interested in getting the 6000 to recognize the larger SD card than I am the 5500. However, if there is a driver available for it as well, then I'll make sure I have it available. Thanks for the info. Ceffyl |
