clavicle Posted May 3, 2006 Posted May 3, 2006 (edited) Is it possible to create more than one partition on a usb drive or sd mmc card or any another flash media? Edited May 3, 2006 by clavicle
clavicle Posted May 3, 2006 Author Posted May 3, 2006 not as far as i know, but i may be wrong.This is exactly what I also think, but you are always limited by your own knowledge.
LLXX Posted May 4, 2006 Posted May 4, 2006 Yes, is possible.Mount it just like a hard drive and proceed as normal.
jaclaz Posted May 4, 2006 Posted May 4, 2006 It'not so easy under 2k/xp.Most USB sticks default to be identified as "removable".XP will format a removable drive as "superfloppy", i.e. without an MBR and with just a single partiton.If you "force" on the stick a MBR, (like the famous HP format utility does) Windows can work with the stick allright, but, UNLESS you can make the stick be seen as "fixed" ONLY first partition will be mountable.There are two possible workarounds:1) have the stick manufacturer utility that can "activate" the "fixed" switch2) use a Drive filterSee here:http://www.911cd.net/forums//index.php?showtopic=14292jaclaz
