it's a normal micro-sd in my moko, i didn't found a slider..

with my last system, it works (om 2008.9, your/andys kernel), but with
om 2008.12 it didn't.. i couldn't belive it that 2008.12 make the fs
corruptet, cuase the testing-version had the same problem. could it be
a hardware-failure of the sd-card? (also strange, cause it save
everything..)
