Re: Wrong size reported on SD Card
Ok, can't think of anything else then. You might consider filing a bug against your distro to provide blockdev. I probably will just take out the sd card, grab a gparted live cd and try to partition it at work. But I am surprised no one else has had this issue trying to partition/format on the freerunner itself. ___ support mailing list support@lists.openmoko.org https://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/support
Re: [2008.12] sim card problems
I had the same problem with qTopia -- the best I can say is try a different distro...that fixed it for me...I just didn't have the patience to look for a solution. i've had some intermittent problems with text-messaging on my fr, using the qtopia messaging app. at some points, if i try to delete a message, i get the following error: 'SIM card is not ready, are you sure you want to delete this message?' i can't remember the exact text, but it's something close to that. what's happening here, i.e. why is the sim card not 'ready' (whatever that means), and what will happen if i do delete the text? sometimes it's fixed with a reboot, sometimes not ___ support mailing list support@lists.openmoko.org https://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/support -- View this message in context: http://n2.nabble.com/-2008.12--sim-card-problems-tp2653750p2656715.html Sent from the Openmoko Support mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ___ support mailing list support@lists.openmoko.org https://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/support
Re: Wrong size reported on SD Card
After formatting the 2 new partitions, 1st 6GB vfat, 2nd 1.xGB ext3, I restart the phone so things will mount accordingly (still in QT, mind you). When I ssh in now, it shows a vfat partition mounted in /media/card that is only 1gb. No sign of the ext3 partition. What am I doing wrong? My guess is that the filesystems were not created properly (probably because the partition-reread failed for some reason). Now that you've rebooted and that the two partitions have been properly read, try to re-create the filesystems (i.e. re-run the mkfs.vfat and mkfs.ext3 commands).

Stefan I just gave that another try to be sure. Same result. The ext3 partition looks fine. The vfat partition is only 1022m reported by df instead of ~6GB. Fdisk always shows the correct info. ___ support mailing list support@lists.openmoko.org https://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/support
