Hi Helmut, |
23 |
Sorry for the problems. No real good ideas here, but assuming the |
24 |
Win 7 VM is on the same Gentoo machine then it appears to be something |
25 |
missing from Gentoo. I'd start by using the Win 7 disk tools: |
26 |
|
27 |
Control Panel -> System & Security -> Create & format hard disk partitions |
28 |
|
29 |
and look to see what Win 7 believes it's talking to. |
30 |
|
31 |
Also, make sure if you have the VM running that it isn't |
32 |
automatically mounting the Garmin which would make the SD unavailable |
33 |
to Linux. Handle that in the Virtualbox->Device menu. |
34 |
|
35 |
Best of luck. Sounds like an interesting problem, if that's possible. |

Cheers, |
