Re: [tlug] Ubuntu won't format a 2GB SD card as fat 16



Josh,

Thanks for replying.

Yup, that is where Ubuntu's automounter is. You can find out what the
/dev node is by:

Strange. The USB guy seems to indicate that he's attached to some kind of SCSI...

Try tailing /var/log/messages as described above when inserting a
card. See if you can tell which device it becomes. Then run "sudo
fdisk -l /dev/sdd" (changing sdd to whatever the device node actually
is).

I just get the error messages, so it's not really telling me as much as I need to know.


Sigh. I think I just wasted my money on an SD card I have to buy a new SD card reader to use.
