Well whenever I try to open/read/write on the internal SD card (directly not going throught USB storage) I got weird responses. For example, Gparted prompt an error message going along the lines of "I can't handle overlaping partitions", and "sfdisk -l" freaks out too, here's its output :

Disk /dev/sdb: 1018 cylinders, 123 heads, 62 sectors/track
sfdisk: Warning: extended partition does not start at a cylinder boundary.
DOS and Linux will interpret the contents differently.
sfdisk: ERROR: sector 7 does not have an msdos signature
sfdisk: Warning: The partition table looks like it was made
for C/H/S=*/1/0 (instead of 1018/123/62).
For this listing I'll assume that geometry.
Units: 1MiB = 1024*1024 bytes, blocks of 1024 bytes, counting from 0

Device Boot Start End MiB #blocks Id System
/dev/sdb1 493 3790 3298 3377152 b W95 FAT32
/dev/sdb2 * 36 67 32 32768 6 FAT16
/dev/sdb3 0+ 493- 493 504832 85 Linux extended
/dev/sdb4 0 - 0 0 0 Empty
/dev/sdb5 68 83 16 16384 83 Linux
/dev/sdb6 84 99 16 16384 83 Linux
/dev/sdb7 100 134- 35- 35328 83 Linux
/dev/sdb8 134+ 378 245- 250368 83 Linux
/dev/sdb9 379 476 98 100352 83 Linux
/dev/sdb10 477 492 16 16384 83 Linux

I'll try to find and switch internal SD card for another one tomorrow (even thought I've never see a SD card fail like this, some have failed me by the past going from "everything is fine" to "all your data, hopes and dreams are gone in the void, kisses")

And I'll give the external SD card a try too.

Thanks

EDIT :
installing application on the external card seems to work out. Thanks a lot ! I'll still investigate on the internal memory tho and will keep you up-to-date
