Might be worth checking the output of dmesg command in xterminal, shortly after you put the back cover back on after inserting the card. Look for stuff to do with mmcblk IIRC. It might give a clue as to what the problem is.

I have several Nokia phones and got used to hot swap memory card function but seems that N900 is like old 9300/9500 which needed to have back cover installed before sd card activates. I formatted my card several time before discovered to cover issue.

It doesn't seem to recognize the card with the cover off, but is fine when you put it on.

I have a 16gb card in mine, filled to the brim with music. Everything else - videos, books, pdfs, games, comics, etc - is in the N900's storage.
