Yeah, I knew that Nokia only mentions support for 1GB MMC cards, but I was hoping it was only because 2GB cards haven't been on the market very long.
Just so everyone is sure - I've tried it with something as simple as a 128MB FAT partion at the beginning of the card; still no go. It's not the partition size that's the problem.
From the feedback I've gotten on the maemo developers list, it seems this is a kernel problem - So tonight I'm going to make sure there is a bug report about this logged, for what it's worth.

Thanks, this is one of the biggest things holding me back. I need at LEAST 2gb of storage on the go. The nokia 770 is so close to being my perfect Handheld. Just give me the 2gb RSMMC card!
Most phones nowadays can use 1+gig cards; even the Sony lockup crap. We really need to get Nokia to rewrite the kernel or/and the drivers for 1+gig cards. Personally I don't really need it but like to have it there, but I know most other people actually need it.
Great to hear about it, now I can recommend the N770 to friends and others who like to have mp3 and videos. Most of those people ***** about the memory size, and usually they compare the n770 to the ipod or the zen players.
Wooohooo...I'm going to order a 2 gig card when I get home...Anyone wants to buy 1 gig card from me....I have 2 of them. It's hard to keep track of of one of them...I always leave it in my pocket and almost getting it in the washer and dryer. Now does that mean it will support 3 gig cards??? haha...j/k
