BTW, I had this problem and this did the trick to me.

Thanks, It worked for me like a charm. I had the following error:
I couldn't see any content of the internal card. Although, it was listed in Settings / Memory as being present.
Couldn't flash it with flasher either, so I was doomed. I thought the chipset was broken. I read this post from Temporal and I did the following:

a) install rootsh from repository

b) open Terminal

c)

Code:

sudo gainroot

Code:

sfdisk -l (that's the L small letter)

I had listed 4 partitions:
/dev/mmcblk0p1 ...... system: c W95 FAT32 (LBA)
/dev/mmcblk0p2 ...... system: 83 Linux
/dev/mmcblk0p3 ...... system: 82 Linux swap / Solaris
/dev/mmcblk0p4 ...... system: 0 Empty

The 1st one was the problematic one, respectively mmcblk0p1

e)

Code:

umount /dev/mmcblk0p1

worked perfectly, no erros.

f)

Code:

fsck.vfat -f /dev/mmcblk0p1

worked perfectly, no erros.

g)

Code:

reboot

After reboot was succesfully repaired, even Windows sees it as it should

Thanks 9000 and Temporal for reposting it
