Looks like I'll have to get myself a faster SD card, I don't think a Class 2 card will be enough soon

I tried again 2day in Terminal on my Mac which SSH connected to N900, and give me feedback like this:
Nokia-N900:~# unmount /dev/mmcblk1p1
-sh: unmount: not found
Nokia-N900:~# sfdisk -uM /dev/mmcblk1 << EOF
> ,<100>,C
> ,,L

> EOF
Checking that no-one is using this disk right now ...
BLKRRPART: Device or resource busy
This disk is currently in use - repartitioning is probably a bad idea.
Umount all file systems, and swapoff all swap partitions on this disk.
Use the --no-reread flag to suppress this check.
Use the --force flag to overrule all checks.
Nokia-N900:~# unmount /dev/mmcblk1p1
-sh: unmount: not found
Nokia-N900:~# mkfs.vfat /dev/mmcblk1p1 -n sdcard

mkfs.vfat: /dev/mmcblk1p1 contains a mounted file system.

mke2fs 1.41.3.maemo0 (12-Oct-2008)

The device apparently does not exist; did you specify it correctly?

You wrote unmount instead on umountTheres no "n"
Give that a whirl, but try and use the help thread...thats the proper place

Cheers mate, I corrected the typo...however, it gave sth back like this
Nokia-N900:~# umount /dev/mmcblk1p1
Nokia-N900:~# sfdisk -uM /dev/mmcblk1 << EOF
> ,<100>,C
> ,,L
> ,,

OK
Disk /dev/mmcblk1: 31000 cylinders, 4 heads, 16 sectors/track
Old situation:
Warning: The partition table looks like it was made
for C/H/S=*/5/4 (instead of 31000/4/16).
For this listing I'll assume that geometry.
Units = mebibytes of 1048576 bytes, blocks of 1024 bytes, counting from 0
Device Boot Start End MiB #blocks Id System
/dev/mmcblk1p1 4+ 968- 965- 987890+ 6 FAT16
start: (c,h,s) expected (410,4,4) found (4,2,30)
end: (c,h,s) expected (1023,4,4) found (984,4,4)
/dev/mmcblk1p2 0 - 0 0 0 Empty
/dev/mmcblk1p3 0 - 0 0 0 Empty
/dev/mmcblk1p4 0 - 0 0 0 Empty
trailing junk after number

ericube cross posting INTO A DEVELOPMENT THREAD will not get you help any faster, maybe if you actualyl read the howto PROPERLY you wouldn have a problem, and personally if you cant do a simple bit of partitioning a card using cli you shouldn be trying nitdroid
edit: but remove the <> and it will sort it your not supposed to have those in as is clearly mentioned in howto

There is an alternative way to resize/create/delete partition(s) on the flash card. Since all of you are using either virtual machine or live cd, why not download and install gparted ? If you use ubuntu live cd, it's already installed there. If you are using vmware, and your system is based on debian, just type "sudo su" then "apt-get update && apt-get install gparted"
and then don't close the window and type "gparted".
and then don't close the window and type "gparted".
