Subject: Beagleboard -XM and 32GB microSD card oddities
Date: Thu, 30 Jun 2011 10:50:59 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4E0C4703.9000207@blueyonder.co.uk> (raw)

I'm not really looking for a solution, just supplying some information 
in case anyone is contemplating a >16GB card.

Using Ubuntu 11.04 ARM or x86_64, I cannot create an ext4 partition that 
will mount. Doing fsck.ext4 appears to fix the filesystem, but rerunning 
fsck.ext4 a second time gives the same errors.

Only BTRFS works.

A BTRFS partition can be created without a problem. I then use rsync to 
copy across all the data from the 16GB (ext4) partition and it mounts 
without errors. After the rsync I create the excluded directories proc, 
sys, tmp, media.

I get a kernel oops (2.6.39-x1) on boot up of the 32GB card.
I'm still trying to figure why I'm getting the oops that I don't have on 
the original 16GB card.
Regards
Sid.
