[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chronozphere:
Hi everbody,

Yesterday I received two Transcend 8GB microSDHC cards (Class 4, TS8GUSDHC4) and I wanted to use them with my rooted EEE pad transformer. I've formatted the card using fdisk (with fat32, "c" in fdisk). Then, I copied a jpg to the SD card, but my tablet couldn't open it.

I've checked /Removable but it was empty. I went into the adb shell as root. "dmesg" gave me the following:

Not sure what is happening here, but no device seems to be mounted. With the card inserted, I also ran "df ":

Can somebody help me getting my SD card to work? Is this card simply not compatible or is something else wrong?

I've searched the forums, but I couldn't find the answer anywhere.

Thanks a bunch!
