anyone have a clue what this may be? when i first added the card, it did indeed report a lot of free space in the content lister (the 3.5gb, more or less)
then when i added about 100mb via the usb cable, 'free space' went to 0, and has stayed there since, even though when i access the card through the windows explorer (while inserted in the iLiad) it reports that everything 7.5gb-99mb is free..
and when i do df-h
i get
/dev/hda1 7.5G 7.5G 0 100% /media/cf

can anyone help? windows reports the drive as being formatted fat32.
