Fat, Fat32, Ext2, and Ext3 are all partition types I've successfully tested on the NIT. Don't know about support for any others though.

Have you tried a card with multiple partitions? Maybe that is the issue here.

I'm guessing it can be both... a bug and a feature

I've been experimenting some more. I can't get a SD Card with a single ext3 partition to auto-mount either. I've also tried a card with a single FAT32 partition and that did work!
Is there an official reference on what partition types are supported on Maemo 5?

Multiple partitions works, but Maemo looks at you kinda funny and gets a bit grumpy on the side because of it, but it'll handle it. At least it did when I last tested it.

In addition, http://maemo.org/maemo_release_docum....x/node12.html says that /mnt/initfs/lib/modules has the kernel modules.
In /mnt/initfs/lib/modules/2.6.21-omap1, the following filesystem modules are present:
ext2.ko
ext3.ko
gadgetfs.ko (?)
It's of course possible to install and use other filesystems (Microsofts SMB, for instance) with the right packages, but this is (I think) what ships.

All times are GMT. The time now is 00:09.
Does anyone know what partition types are supported for the SD card on the N900?
I have inserted a card with two ext3 partitions, but the Settings app says it is corrupted. Mounting from the terminal works perfectly though.
In short, is this a bug or a feature?
