i'm having trouble formatting the micro SD..

To format the card I did the following in terminal on the n900:

sfdisk -uM /dev/mmcblk1 << EOF
,,L
,,
,,
,,
EOF

then I typed:

mke2fs -j -m0 /dev/mmcblk1p1

Then I mounted the card and copied the larger of the two files there and extracted it.
i did this step, and the memory card gets formatted..but after that, i got "MEMORY CARD FORMAT UNSUPPORTED"...

same if i use this command

Code:
umount / media/mmc1
Code:
mke2fs -t ext3 -m 0 /dev/mmcblk1p1

even when i put the microSD to the pc, it'll ask me "the disk is not formatted. do you want to format now?"

what should i do?pls help..
