MicroSD cards support questions in gta02

[Πρεκατές Αλέξανδρος]

Thanks for the reply Ed.

My gta02 boots every 10 sec and the last messages seen before boot is in the 
image :
http://imagepaste.nullnetwork.net/viewimage.php?id=1848


The images i used for kernel and qi where from:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/qtmoko/files/
I took the kernel from:
qtmoko-debian-v31.tar.gz
after extracting it in a local folder.


Also if its usefull:
#mke2fs /dev/sde1
mke2fs 1.41.12 (17-May-2010)
Filesystem label=
OS type: Linux
Block size=4096 (log=2)
Fragment size=4096 (log=2)
Stride=0 blocks, Stripe width=0 blocks
486720 inodes, 1946368 blocks
97318 blocks (5.00%) reserved for the super user
First data block=0
Maximum filesystem blocks=1996488704
60 block groups
32768 blocks per group, 32768 fragments per group
8112 inodes per group
Superblock backups stored on blocks: 
        32768, 98304, 163840, 229376, 294912, 819200, 884736, 1605632

Writing inode tables: done
