    Default Need Help Partitioning SD Card!!!


    I downloaded Paragon Partition Manager 9.0
    and attempted to partition my SD card, so when i flash over to the
    new magic build i could simply Move Apps to my Sd Card without the complexity involved with earlier methods,
    But.........
    as i went through the steps of partitioning
    it started Partitioning my Hard drive,
    so i canceled mid way through the process..
    i was never given the option to chose which drive to partition,
    to make a long story short....
    i cannot find where or how to make this program detect my sd card...
    i really need some help one on one...
    if you're willing to help out a fellow droid!

    whoa a phone number!! Better watch out, some here like to use sms barrage a lot .....


    he knows who he is!!


    anywho, when you have paragon open, did you pick the option that said, "format a partition to any popular file system?"

    did you insert the micro sd card into its adapter, then pop it in?

    what a coincedence, it was on a thread you posted to, that i got the reference to use this program... hmmm

    NO i did not see that option..
    i have a sd card reader, have the card inserted
    able to view its content...
    but i cannot get it to relate to my SD card.
    it's as if i downloaded a version specifically for hard drive partitioning.

    please helpppppp!!!!

    Download Ubuntu Linux, burn a CD, and boot off that. That's what I did to repartition my SD card and it worked fine. And it's free, can't argue with that.

    Use the G1 as a card reader.

    I have a card reader and booted Unbuntu, plugged it in and changed the partition size as though I was getting ready to install Linux. It did complain the partition was not big enough for an install, but I just did the partition then quit.

    You Should Use Like 700-1G, But I'm Not Sure I've Just Seen That Much Recommended.
