Note that most vendors are using an irritating way of labeling the capacity of their cards (They are using the factor 1000 instead of 1024 for KB and MB). Therefore the real capacity of these cards will be about 5% less than the vendor's specification. For example, cards labelled ''6 GB'' will only have 5.7 GB of storage capacity. | Note that most vendors are using an irritating way of labeling the capacity of their cards (They are using the factor 1000 instead of 1024 for KB and MB).

TODO: Maybe reformat table, see discussion page (See: To-Do List) |
There are a plethora of Transflash / microSD / SDHC (Secure Digital High Capacity) cards out there.
The Neo FreeRunner supports up to 8GB SDHC cards.
Some microSD cards appear to be too slow to work with the current default settings of the glamo driver, so some specific parameters must be set in uboot to use them (see https://docs.openmoko.org/trac/ticket/1743, and corresponding notes in the tables bellow).
There had been a bug in the SD device driver (s3cmci) which caused some trouble. Please make sure you use a post-september 4th kernel which applies our kernel patchset rev2832 or higher.
Booting from SDHC requires a u-boot from 2008-07-23 or later. But pay attention : there are problems with SDHC cards at suspend time. More details from Booting from SD
Note that most vendors are using an irritating way of labeling the capacity of their cards (They are using the factor 1000 instead of 1024 for KB and MB). Therefore the real capacity of these cards will be about 5% less than the vendor's specification. For example, cards labelled 6 GB will only have 5.7 GB of storage capacity.
If you want to exchange your SD card more often: Jörg has a nice sticky tape trick to do this with no hassle.

Note that cards with a "no" may still work at times, but that we just have found their behaviour too erratic to consider acceptable. (Also note that this is a bug in our version of u-boot. The cards are probably fine.)
