Thanks for the reply juiceme, I am merely following suggestions, as I did format to ext4 with my device and didn't acheive the desired result, Gparted was my next bet according to those assisting me, I am more confident and even comfortable doing the formatting on my jolla, and am here for advice, so please do advice me on the proper way to format the sdxc card using my phone, so that the json command you asked me to run will not return partition issues problems. Thanks in anticipation of your reply
