Hi I can create an emunand with GW without any issue on my 4GB SD card, but if I put in a 2GB it just never completes, apparently GW thinks 2GB is too small?

I am pretty sure an emunand does not require more than 2GB so I am thinking to move the one I created with 4GB card onto my 2GB card. How do you cut a partition (in Windows) on the card? Thanks

You can adapt the instruction in this tutorial to partition your SD. After doing it. you'll have to write with an hex Editor in the first 11 byte of sector 0 the string "GATEWAYNAND" (withount the ending 0x0 char), so you can use emunand tool to inject the GW emunand.

But beware that your SD will look like of only about 700 Mb so can happen that il will be formated using CHS addressing (used for FAt16 on old up than 2GB) that could be not readable from windows for the presence of the starting unalocated space.

It's a problem of some windows version (my Win 7 64bit has it), not of the SD. Linux and the 3DS can handle it fine.

    Will you give me mouth to mouth oxygen if my throat closes?

    Yes it requires a degree

    I could also yank out the rest of my teeth but theirs professionals for that
  • x65943 @ x65943:
    If your throat closes, putting oxygen in your mouth will not solve anything - as you will be introducing oxygen prior to the area of obstruction
  • JuanMena @ JuanMena:
    Just kiss me Kyle.
  • x65943 @ x65943:
    You either need to be intubated to bypass obstruction or create a stoma inferior to the the area of obstruction to survive

  • JuanMena @ JuanMena:
    It was waiting for you to order another one.
    Seems like, your PSU was waiting for a partner.
  • JuanMena @ JuanMena:
    Keep them both
    separated or you'll have more PSUs each year.
  • K3N1 @ K3N1:
    Well one you insert one PSU into the other one you get power
  • JuanMena @ JuanMena:
