« on: July 03, 2006, 05:21:14 pm »

tried that one too, saying not found
this is what I'm doing

cd /root
umount /dev/mmcda1
umount: /dev/mmcda1

also tried
cd /
umount /dev/mmcda1
umount: /dev/mmcda1

Tried mmcda, mmcda1
when I do
cd/
umount /dev/mmcd it says not mounted
so I go the to next stage
fdisk /dev/mmcd and that says - You will not be able to write the partition table.
unable to read /dev/mmcd

I get a unable to open /dev/mmcda and /dev/mmcda1

I'm very new to Linux please help

Thanks for the quick respose however I'm getting an error when trying to umount /dev/mmcda cannot be found. I have checked the dev folder and there is a mmcd and a disk0 within that folder. I've tried umount /dev/mmcd but still no joy.

I'm running pdaXrom, I think this is for openzaurus.

Please can someone tell me where I'm going wrong?

Hi please can someone help me?

I now own a C860 and I'm running pdaXrom beta 1 on it with a 1GB SD card.
I have formatted the SD card through WinXP to FAT16 and when I try to install programs to it coming up with a permissions problem.
Someone told me that it needs to be ext2 to install programs on it but then windows won't be able to read the card which I need.

I am new to Linux and can someone give me instructions on how to format the SD card either on the Zaurus or on Suse.

Also is there a way to do 2 partitions on the SD card one ext2 and the other one Fat?

Cheers

Mr O
