How do you organize/categorize your SD cards?
 

I started with a 770 and one 64 Mb RSMMC 7 months ago. Now I have more than 12 SD/RSMMC cards. They are tiny and cannot be labelled except the Dane-Elec SDs. I would like to know how would one organize and categorize them. Currently, I have each one of them stored separately in their own plastic jacket, inserted a small label description of contents and stands up like a CD in my drawer. It occupies space, the plastic jackets, and difficult to find files. I use gnumeric to categorize files. Comments? Suggestions?

TIA,

I put a piece of light colored tape and a number on them.

I would make a text file on your internal memory with a basic index of what's on each card. Then put a numeric label on each card, as gemniii42 suggested.

Also if you're using smaller capacity cards, consider buying just a couple bigger ones.

Thanks for the suggestions.
I have problems in knowing the content of each card. I use a PC, it reads only the fat32 partition. That is fine. I want to know what is on the Linux partition. I popped the SD into the EEEPC (I think it is a Linux box?), under file manager, it tells a typical linux OS folders, i.e. bin,boot,cdrom,dev,etc.... I can only get meaningful info when I popped into my tablet internal slot. I do not want to move SD in and out of the internal slot more often than I have to. So, my question again, how do you find out the disk content without having to popped into my tablet. BTW, my disks are mainly 4 - 8 Gs, quite descent size I think.

I apologize if I did not make myself clear. What I want is some kind of programs like a disk catalog, reads the disk with an ID and stored disk content on some format that I can manipulate. Maybe there is nothing like this on the Linux platform?

Or maybe some Linux diskcatalog/commands that runs on the EEEPC to read my cards, that is fine.
