SDHC update :

I installed the SDHC update sdhc-kernel-3.2007.10 on my n800 using flasher-2.0.macosx on a PowerBook G4 running Tiger Mac OSX.

The n800 had previously been updated to 3.2007.10 using the Windows flasher on a borrowed PC.

The Mac OSX terminal session is listed below.

I attempted to rename a class 6 Kingston 8GB SDHC card using the memory control panel. A "corrupted" error message was produced. On formatting the card using the memory control panel - the card capacity reduced from 7.52 GB to 2GB - "fat 16".

On formatting the 8 GB SDHC card in the n800 using the Mac OSX Disk Utility and "Windows format" ( Fat 32 ) the card capacity returned to 7.52 GB.
I could rename the card using Disk Utility - but the n800 still used the default "internal memory" and " replaceable external memory" names.

I transferred 300 MB of files OK to 8GB Kingston SDHC cards in the internal and external slots. As yet no test of capacity beyond 2GB. Seems OK.

Questions : Anyone working on a flasher-3.0.macosx ?
Anyone working on a flasher for Intel based Macs ?
