In this case, you don't want to erase the contents on the backup card, so it would be best to format some other card in the ereader, and then copy the contents from the backup to the formatted card via a PC.
Unfortunately the Jetbook Mini requires a formatted card (FAT or FAT32) - it cannot format its own.

My problems (some worked - some "identical" ones didn't) were with cards which were all formatted in the same Windows 7 PC so the problem does seem to be card and not format.
