[Project cancelled] my microsd card and my failures
aus9:
Hi
your dd images
Can you advise what format you prefer the sd card to be made please?
Can you advise what was the size of your partition that you used to create the dd image?
--- I am thinking I have done something wrong again....because I tried it with 8G microSD card formatted as ext3
cheers
bmarkus:
Originally piCore image was created on 4G card. dd overwrites partition table, so it doesn't matter how it is partioned and formatted before dd'ing. Didn't try but It must be OK with a 8G or 2G card. Image contains first 40M sectors including partition table and a vfat partition, check with fdisk after copying to SD card.

bmarkus.....split off this post if it causes you any concerns
thats great to know and I am thinking I have a faulty microsd card that fits into the allwinner
after redoing an image I can mount the sd card and see its contents and copy over my script.bin

but after trying it, I get a blank screen and then the android splashes
then I re-insert my sd card and get a bork

will lash out and buy another card and see if I have the same error
bmarkus:
Few weeks ago a purchased a brand new 4G Class 4 Verbatim card. It was unrealible, showing a strange behavior, missing or false partition info, etc. Spent hours than took out a 4G A-Data card from my digital camera. It is perfect, all problems gone.

Did you run umount first?
