Just wondering if there is an option in CM7 somewhere to safely unmount the microSD card from the Nook Color prior to removing it? Have looked and searched on it to no avail.
I have a problem with the SD card being unmounted anytime the phone tries to access it. The sd card works fine in wm6x, I installed android from the card. I've tried a 4gb sdhc and 2gb sd, froyo 2.2 and Super Froyo. I also tried the SD fix update from Scoots thread and with that the card isn't recognized at all.
What is the best build right now to try? Is there another update to install? Or is it a setting I need to change?
I'm going to try Scoots build while I wait for a reply.
It appears that the only builds that the SD card is recognized in are Scoots. I have been wondering if any others worked and haven't found on. If anyone knows of another, any input would be appreciated.
I'm using Fat Free Froyo and the SD card mounts fine. Can't install apps to it, but other than that I have no issues with it. Can't remember if I used the "SD Fix" update or not.
I'm new to the Nook, I've had it for just over a week and have been running CM7 stable on the sd card from day one. I decided to install the newest nightly (168 I think) bc of increased battery life.
I followed the sd card boot instructions I found on this forum and elsewhere: drag and drop new nightly onto sd card, boot into recovery, but the update wouldn't take. Took the plunge to wipe the sd card, rewrote the size agnostic boot image, put on the new nightly, nothing. What finally worked was me increasing the size of the boot partition to a gig, and then the new nightly finally installed.
Alls good right? NOPE. Now for some reason I can't access ANY files I have on my emmc! I have all my books and videos stored there bc of the limited sd card space, but now I can't access them on the new nightly like I did on the stable version. I can see the emmc files in the file manager, but when I try to open books with aldiko it says "sd card not found" or "operation could not be completed. " in settings it says that the sd card is unmounted, but when I go to mount it, my notification bar says the "sd card is damaged" and that "you may have to reformat the sd card." It also seems the sd card is recognized as "internal memory" in the storage part of the setting menu.
Help! Should I drop down to the previous nightly? Reduce the size of the boot partition? Please treat wiping the sd card again as a last resort. Thanks in advance for your help.

My suggestion is getting a new uSD card.
What was your card capacity? 1GB?

Thanks for the response! This is really confusing me.
My sd card is an old 2 GB sandisk I took from an old berry I had.
But per my post above im not sure that the problem is with the sd card. It worked perfectly with cm7 stable. Im thinking maybe I messed up the installation process? Please help!

Also, the actual problem here is not accessing the sd card, it is accessing books on the emmc! For some reason cm7 wont let me open books from my internal memory bc of an sd card issue. Im confused.
Again, the sd card worked perfectly in cm7 stable. AND cm7 is booting fine from the SD card! Please help folks!

So I have no idea when this issues started and it seems to happen with *all* roms I flash on my Captivate now. (I'm using CM10.0 at the moment). Basically the issue is that when the phone boots, it'll only automatically mount the "internal storage (1.46gb)" and my external 32gb sd card.
It won't automatically mount the user-data portion of the internal card (the bit the Captivate calls "USB storage" (13.03gb). However, I can mount it manually if I go into <Storage> and do it from there.
This happens all the time to me *unless* I have my external sd card removed. Then everything boots and mounts normally. If I then insert my external sd card, then that will mount normally as well.
But with both my internal and external inside upon boot, it won't automatically mount the "USB storage area" that I mentioned. That's the bulk of the internal sd card in the first place!
So how do I fix?

Is your external SD set as main? It seems like it thinks your external has priority.

Hello,
Did you fix this problem? Because i have the same on my galaxy s i9000 running CM10.1 Nightly from today (11/01/2012)
4 Day ago everything was fine, both sd´s were mounted at boot. But then suddenly ...bang... no int-sd (Usb-Storage), although i can access everything in CWM (int-sdm ext-sd, system etc.)
Maybe you know something?
Greetings, Strainhunter

Bumping because there doesn't seem to be an answer to this. Mine is doing the same thing. Running CM 10.1 RC2, 5-28 Nightly. If I connect my Captivate to my computer, then disconnect, it will mount the internal SD, but then the external SD won't be mounted. If I follow that procedure again, both SD storages will mount.
Unknown how the external SD can be set as main storage. How is that done? My ringtones are all on my internal SD card, and every time this happens the ringtones have to be reset. It's a hassle.
try this
power down.
remove sd card and set it aside.
boot the phone without the sd card. wait for it to settle down - like 10 minutes.
with the phone still on, remove the back cover and put the sd card in the slot, then replace the cover.
go to settings, storage and see if the card is mounted. if not, click mount sd card.

I'm not talking about the removable SD card. I'm talking about the internal storage.
I know. try the steps I suggested. your storage devices may have multiple mount commands that conflict with each other. try it.

Seems to have worked. Thanks!
my external SD is mounted but doesnt show folds
I have a problem with my external SD. It mounts fine, sort of. All the things stored on it are in the phone and usable but, if I go into Myers file manager, Root Explorer, and if I go to ex SD, there is only like four files showing. This is a 16G SD card with about nine gigs uses just for music and another three gigs used for miscellaneous apps and things.
They are in the phone. They are usable. I just can't access them.
Is this something to do with permissions? Read and write? It does the same if I move it to my other phone. Any help would be great. Thanks
It all began yesterday... I was on CM12 and I was browsing the web. Suddenly, I got a toast saying "SD Card unexpectedly removed". It didn't matter to me. HOWEVER, when I went into storage, all I saw under SD Card was erase and unmount sd card options which were grayed out. I thought it was just a bug in CM12... I then installed the stock ROM only to figure out it also didn't detect it. If it is not the systems fault, then is it maybe something else like the kernel??
PS, Yes, I had my SD card inserted properly. Also, my computer won't detect the SD card either.
