Hi guys, I am having very hard time with my microSD card (4GB, Transcend, Class 2) for the past several days. I am using Windows 7 and I formatted this card using FAT and also FAT32. Then using Win32 disk image installer, I installed Debian 7.7 eMMC flasher for BBB (Jan 6, 2015 release) in the card.
After successful writing, I safely removed the card and inserted it again in the PC (using card reader) to check the files, immediately an pop up flashed asking to format the card. Also, I could not see the card size in 'My computer'.I have done this process earlier and it worked well (display of files) but I dont know why it doesnot work well. Moreover, instead of win32 disk image installer, I used cygwin to write the debian image in the card after formating it with the below syntax and it was successful. But when I remove and insert the card again to check the files, the pop up says 'You need to format the card' $ dd bs=1M if=BBB-eMMC-flasher-debian-7.7-console-armhf-2015-01-06-2gb.img of=/dev/sdb 1700+0 records in 1700+0 records out 1782579200 bytes (1.8 GB) copied, 548.304 s, 3.3 MB/s Moreover, I used this card in BBB to flash the eMMC but it did not work. It initially started to show that the flash process was on but all LED's glowed within 5 minutes. Then I removed the card and supplied the power again and I was not able to connect at all through Putty like before. I tried formatting the microSD card using DISKPART in Windows 7, HP USB Disk Storage Format Tool 2.2.3 (for FAT32) and also HP USB Disk Storage Format Tool 0.0.6 (for FAT) as suggested in this forum and made sure there are no partitions in the card using cygwin. But it is of no use. Please help me out!! Thanks!!
