I can't format it in settings. New card, same size as the previous one.
PS What to format it with? exFAT or FAT32?
Thanks.

I have a 1 gig card to use in my rooted NC. Do I need to format it some special way ? I have it formated as NTFS but I can not read it with ASTRO. It should be listed under sdcard right ? but I dont see it.
Help!
From what I've read on the Nook Color spec, it supports the FAT32 filesystem.
Try formatting your microSD card to that (or use the Nook to format the sd card directly)

Yup, FAT32 will work if what you have is a PC. There may be some UNIX filesystem format that's supported too, but for a 1 GB card, FAT32 is enough with its 4 GB file size limitation.
Do I need to format those cards to ext4? I'm seeing that these cards are still fat32....
it is not needed ...
Is there a reason why it shouldn't be?
I need to get a 13.2GB file on a 16GB microSD card I have that's manufactured formatted to FAT32. I could format it to exFAT in Windows 7 to get around FAT32 4GB file transfer limitation but I'm not sure if the Nook will be able to read a microSD card formatted in exFAT.
Have anyone attempted before?
Does anyone know if you can format the storage partition on the sdcard as ntfs or ext4.
Reason for this is if you want to put hd movies on your sd card and they are over 4GB you can't do this with FAT32.
So you would need to format it in a different partition. Anyone know if it works ?

You format it to ExFat. That is the new sdcard format to get it to store more than 4gb. How you are going to do it I don't know. If it were stock, formatting that is easy, but CM10, I don't know. NTSF won't work but ext4 should. You can use partitioning software to do that.

Title says it all. How to transfer files larger than 4GB to SD card? I tried formatting SD card to NTFS but my 2X refuses to accept SD card in that format. Is there any other way?
Thanks!

format using exfat(windows) , or ext4(linux). fat32 cannot transfer file more than 3GB. since kowalski kernel already support exfat and ext4 already support in cm10.1 by tonyp
