Comment(by Sascha):

 I had the same problem with a "SanDisk® Mobile Ultra™ microSDHC™ 8GB Card"
 - only the "Serial number" and the "Manufacturing date" strings differ.
 First I partitioned/formated the card with GNU Parted and I could not boot
 from it.
 Then with fdisk and mkfs.ext2 and I can boot debian without problems now.

 although mmcinit still says

 using
