Hi, |
| 2 |
|
| 3 |
for my tablet PC I used a used 32GB FAT32 formatted SDcard. The |
| 4 |
formatting was already done by the manufacturer. |
| 5 |
Then I screwed it up and had to do the partioning and formatting |
| 6 |
myself again. "No big deal", I thought -- and was wrong. |
| 7 |
Yes, the "thing" I got could be read and written. But it was |
| 8 |
DAMN slow in comparison to the original formatting. |
| 9 |
|
| 10 |
I googled and found a description, which described exactly, |
| 11 |
what I wanted: An optimal formatting for one big FAT32 partion. |
| 12 |
I did it again ;) and: TADA! The speed was back. |

Now I need the something identical but explained in a way |
| 16 |
that it can be successfully applied to any partion layout |
| 17 |
and any SDcard size. |
| 18 |
Currently the new SDcard has 64GB (yes, the tablet eats that size |
| 19 |
well :) and needs at least two partions: One FAT32 and one ext4. |
| 20 |
May be that I need a different layout later. |
| 21 |
|
| 22 |
To what aspect and "logic" do I have to keep my eyes on, when |
| 23 |
it comes partioning/formatting any SDcard size with any partion |
| 24 |
layout and any filesystem? |
| 25 |
|
| 26 |
Thank you very much in advance for any help! |
| 27 |
Best regards, |
