I just got a Gateway Touchpad and pulled the card and my sandisk reader only shows 3.02MB in Win XP, trying to load Midori Linux on it but can't drag the image over.

I had the same prob in win2k using an USB writer. I read somewhere here that the ide writers work, so i got an ide one. Then booted linux and used the dd command to get the image on the stock 32 meg cf.

I'm new to linux, so i have no idea how or if you can mount a cf card in an usb reader.

Someone else could please chime in here regarding the usb cf writer.

good luck,

Got it to kinda work, formatted it with my digital camera as a thought and now it shows 30.5mb, still not 30.7 required for Midori Linux, but its a start.

Another thing, I can't get gemulator explorer to write to my USB CF writer for some reason?? The write features are greyed out and I can't click them.
