64GB microSD & Jolla
I bought one of Transcend, and jolla can see it.. It come formatted to exFAT, already tried to reformat it to NTFS and ext4, but nothing help..
Both file mangers (CargoDock and File Browser) can't see it, also when I connect jolla to pc :( Can someone explain me how to get it work, please ? |
Re: 64GB microSD & Jolla
Format it to FAT32. You'll need to use command line tools on Windows as the GUI will insist on exFAT. On a Mac Disk Utility will format it ok but watch the default partition options.
The partition scheme has to be the old Master Boot Record type and only one partition is supported. It should auto mount. You can also use btrfs and ext4 but those aren't compatible with Windows or Macs and it won't auto mount. |

Re: 64GB microSD & Jolla
ext4 format will be OK, but it will not be automatically mounted. I had to edit /usr/sbin/mount-sd.sh with valuable help from someone on the IRC channel to automatically mount it. Now it works and I can use SFTP to transfer or remove files from /run/user/100000/media/sdcard, even using Windows.
My mount-sd.sh after the changes is the following, but I cannot guarantee this is safe as I only did what I was told to. Please keep in mind that it might really result in issues with your Jolla, and here the warning is a true warning because I'm not a Linux power user. Code:
#!/bin/bash |

I formatted my card to btrfs and it works OK.

exFAT works ok if you just compile these into the device http://code.google.com/p/exfat/downloads/list

Re: 64GB microSD & Jolla
Note that FAT32 works just fine for Windows.
