got stuck again (nitdroid)
 

Hey guys,

i partitioned my 4 gb memcard for nitdroid autoinstaller, but something in between went wrong and i had to quit..
now i want to have my mem card stock fresh, so that i can start again.
In windows it shows only 2 gb, and 1.64 gb of unpartitioned space.
I think that would be in the ext3 format...
I want to clear this partition and format in fat32 so that i can start the process freshly again. But because ext3 is not windows supported, i cant do it in windows...
so somebdy pls tell me a command in xterm to clear all partitions in mem card...
i cant find anywhere...pls help

Re: Command for unpartitioning mem card
 

You can format the memory card in the phone itself.
Go to file manager. long tap on the SD card and format..
or

mkfs.vfat F -32 /dev/mmcblk1


be careful which is memorycard and which is internal memory.

you can check this by doing
leafpad /etc/fstab

sometimes you gotta change the command to mmcblk0

will this remove all the partitions also?

Re: Command for unpartitioning mem card
 

the problem has been sorted..thnks omkar.
now....i have my mem card properly partitioned..bt when i run the nitdroid installer, xterm opens up. i type yes, it starts it processing....
then suddenly when it says "formatting in ext3", xterm closes and im returned back to maemo desktop...
i tried to uninstall it frm app manager, it says its unable to do so.
how do i proceed no??
