The partitions look fine. Here's where I see the problem.
root at om-gta02:~# df -h /dev/mmcblk0p1
Filesystem Size Used Available Use% Mounted on
/dev/mmcblk0p1 1022.0M 4.0k 1022.0M 0% /media/card

The steps I did to prepare the sd card were:
#fdisk /dev/mmcblk0
Created one ~6GB primary partition, then another primary partition with the remaining
#opkg install dosfstools_2.11-r0_armv4t.ipk
# mkfs.vfat -v -n and-media /dev/mmcblk0p1
also tried, with -F 32 to make sure it was fat32
# mkfs.ext3 -v -L and-data /dev/mmcblk0p2
All finished find with no errors. Rebooted freerunner.
