SD Card reader slot

[--Ed--]

I think this is S/W but I may be wrong?


Using PCManFM, the Places window shows the 8GB C10 SD Card. I can read and write to it (/media/disk).

In Control Center, when I click on "Local disks" ---> "Manage disk partitions", sda & sdb are visable.

sda is a 2 GB USB stick. I used unetbootin to create a bootable USB stick and sdb is the internal SSD.

Why doesn't the "Manage disk partitions" window display the SD Card yet PCManFM does?

Sorry if this is confusing. I am trying to install PCLOS to the SD Card.

Possibly because of a bug in libparted ... please open a terminal, su to root and then type:

Code: [Select]

fdisk -l

Sorry to respond so late to this but I don't have much free time. One day a week access.  What is fdisk -l suppose to do?

How do I interpret the screen printout I got?

Is it still the same situation ? the supposed bug in libparted has been fixed in the meantime.

If not already done, update your system and retry.  "fdisk -l" is a command that will show a list of partitions of all disks/USB storage and SD cards attached to your system. (lib)parted, which is a similar software, had a bug that prevent the management of some device under particular conditions ...

Yes I still have the same problem.  My situation is I want to put PCLOS onto the SD Card.  But if the installation program does not recognize the SD Card so I can't install onto it.

Is there a work around that will allow me to install onto the SD Card?

please, unplug the SD card, replug in the SD card, open a terminal and type:

Code: [Select]

dmesg | tail -20
