It apparantly already had it mounted on /media/mmc2... but no big deal as it's obvious the full 2.0 GB are there in a single partition.. which was the goal.

Don't know what to do tell you.. I cloned my SD to my internal 2GB card and it auto-formatted mine with 128MB FAT, 128MB swap, and 1.6GB or so ext2. I might recommend trying the advanced one that I linked earlier instead of the easy deb.. see if there are any failures during clone.sh..

Or attach your Application Manager log file so that we can see what the deb is doing.. right now with no errors or anything I'm at a loss.. And the fact that it formatted your card into a 800MB ext2 was completely confusing.

mrgreaper - reboot your tabled and run it again.

Re-reading the partition table ...
BLKRRPART: Device or resource busy
The command to re-read the partition table failed
Reboot your system now, before using mkfs
