Hi, I have had to do that lately for someone else's camera, so I inserted the flash card into a card reader connected to my box through USB. If you can do the same, then open Gparted, look at the right corner of the window, choose the flash drive disk (it's a drop down menu where you should see something such as "/dev/sd<something" : be careful, all storage peripherals are shown there, including your hard drive... ) and then erase the drive, apply, add new, and format it to Fat16. This is the format needed for these cards.
