    That's a bit obtuse. We're speaking about the limits of the memory card reader hardware addressing, after all.

    Holy **** that's nuts. Makes me think: we should totally desolder the eMMC and solder on a SD slot. Then we'd get 128GB SDXCs in.

    YES, I've done this before too.

    the /etc/fstab is auto generated at boot.

    I THINk its in /etc/rcS its been a long time and I forget, search for it, I figured it out and posted about it last year.

    Once you disable the auto /etc/fstab generation, you can add your own /etc/fstab entries in typical gnu/linux fashion. ext2 and ext3 are supported. JFFS and NILfs are also supported, I remember doing benchmarking for someone.

    not fully supported in the GUI.

    NOW if we could backport the ext4 patches from more recent kernels to maemo's now ancient 2.6.28 ...

    or even a full port of kernel 3?

    anyone?

    kernel-power has support for ext4 and ke-recv from cssu-testing support automounting any partition type supported by kernel. So with cssu-testing + kernel-power is ext4 parition on sd card working fine.

    I have a 64GB SDXC card working ok on my N900. Just ignore "unsupported card" message & format as normal.

    Total memory 90GB+!! Great.

    Sorry if I'm stating the obvious, but did you snap the back cover on again.

    If enough peeps say this works, I'll be ordering a 64G soon.
