Well, if you want to do things yourself and enjoying it, why not?

Info for partitions are here, http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php...plified&page=2, thread #46

commands are as follow,
This is for a 2 G SD in external slot, the slot behind the kick stand, not the one next to the battery compartment, will partition into 0.8G/FAT and 1.2G/ext2. FAT is your storage, able to be read by PC/windows and ext2 is where the tablet OS lives.
===========================================
1) partition
xterm
gainroot
umount /media/mmc1
sfdisk /dev/mmcblk1 -uM
0,800,0C
,,,
(return)
(return)
y
reboot
2) Format FAT
xterm
gainroot
umount /media/mmc1
mkdosfs /dev/mmcblk1p1
reboot
3) Format ext2
xterm
gainroot
umount /media/mmc1
mke2fs /dev/mmcblk1p2
reboot

step 2 and 3 can be combine together to save one reboot
