Problem with fformat ("M:SD_CARD /FAT32");

Hello,

I try to format an SD_CARD with the LPC2368 and RL-ARM 3.40 with :

fformat ("M:SD_CARD /FAT32");

It doesn't work and I don't understand why.

Somebody can help me ?

Thanks

  • Formatting SD Cards requires special considerations - you should not do it with any generic function which isn't specifically designed for the purpose!

    "SD or SDHC memory card file systems formatted with generic operating system formatting software do not comply with official SD memory card requirements and optimum performance may not be experienced."

    See: www.sdcard.org/.../

  • Hi,

    can you try using SD_File example for the microcontroller that you are using and try in command line "format SD_CARD /FAT32" and see if that works?
    Did you make any changes to the code?
