I'm working on a Glo that has obviously had some issues that others haven't been able to fix.

The SD card is a Micro brand (not sure if that would be original) 2GB.
I have the tools to do the image copy and write on my PC.
I plugged it into the reader on my iMac and it shows capacity 1.43GB with 1.42GB available. Name is KOBOeReader, but it's format is MS-DOS (FAT32). Wonder if someone allowed a Windows computer to format it and then was unable to write the image to it.

I'm assuming Flash Drive Image Writer will be able to format and write this correctly... Yes/No?
If it doesn't work, I'll be purchasing a new SD to try again.
I do have Gergith's write up bookmarked.

Can I please have an image for my Glo.

Many Thanks!
