16GB SD card

Hmm,

Windows will not nativly ‘see’ the partition, it apparently only ‘sees’ the first.

I will have to get a live linux cd for the PC… Or get Raspbian running on another SD card.

Ideally I would prefer to do this under RISC OS, seconded by Windows. But will go raspbian if I can find another card!

Cheers

Where am I going wrong?

You need to do the following:

fat32fs:dismount :16 { > null: }
fat32fs:mount -fp2 :16 { > null: }
addtinydir fat32fs::16

I think fp0 is the first FAT partition and fp1 is the filecore partition but it might be the other way round. The dismount command is in case fat32fs has already seen the boot partition, as if it has it will refuse to mount a different partition on the same drive.

I have a Ubuntu version 10 CD for my PC and I use Admin tool/Disk utility to see and format the unused bit above the boot and filecore partitions. Be aware fat32fs has fewer checks than SDFS and so a 16G or 32G dual-partition card (e.g. from RComp) is more secure.

Thanks Chris, but I had seen that in an earlier post, and all I get the following on the mount command:
Could not open drive 16 (-11).

I will try this again though, incase I typed it wrong.
