Linux /dev/fdo

Hey, first post, and I could use some advice on this one.

I'm making a raspberry pi server, and I was needed to reformat an SD card for it. I tried using gparted a few times, and everytime it would freeze at the end of writing on 'scanning all devices'. I've tried it with two seperate sd cards, so I don't think it's a problem with it...

I can reformat other devices (USB) with no problem, and trying it from a boot usb didn't help either.

Looking around online, it's apparently a known bug.

(use https:// at the begging, I can't post links yet)
bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gparted/+bug/155047

It appears that the problem might be fixed by some people by turning off their floppy drive in bios, but my bios does not list the drive.

now my /etc/fstab lists two sd cards when I only have one plugged in.

I'm at a loss guys. If this doesn't work I'm going to have to install a seperate windows partition. Smilie

Anything could help. Thanks in advance! Using linux mint 15. Gatway NE56R41U.

SCF_Terminal_getCard(3SMARTCARD)			    Smartcard Library Functions 			  SCF_Terminal_getCard(3SMARTCARD)

NAME
SCF_Terminal_getCard - establish a context with a smartcard SYNOPSIS
cc [ flag... ] file... -lsmartcard [ library...] #include <smartcard/scf.h> SCF_Status_t SCF_Terminal_getCard(SCF_Terminal_t terminal, SCF_Card_t *card); PARAMETERS
card A pointer to a SCF_Card_t. If the smartcard is successfully opened, a handle for the card will be returned through this parameter. terminal The terminal (from SCF_Session_getTerminal(3SMARTCARD)) containing a smartcard to open. DESCRIPTION
The SCF_Terminal_getCard() function establishes a context with a specific smartcard in a terminal. Card objects can be used to send APDUs (Application Protocol Data Units) to the card with SCF_Card_exchangeAPDU(3SMARTCARD). When the card is no longer needed, SCF_Card_close(3SMARTCARD) should be called to release allocated resources. If SCF_Terminal_getCard() is called multiple times in the same session to access the same physical card (while the card remains inserted), the same SCF_Card_t will be returned in each call. The library cannot identifty specific cards, so when a card is reinserted it will be represented by a new SCF_Card_t. Multithreaded applications must take care to avoid having one thread close a card that is still needed by another thread. This can be accomplished by coordination within the application, or by having each thread open a separate session to avoid interference. RETURN VALUES
If a working card is present in the reader, SCF_STATUS_SUCCESS is returned and card is a valid reference to the card. Otherwise, an error value is returned and card remains unaltered. ERRORS
The SCF_Terminal_getCard() function will fail if: SCF_STATUS_BADARGS The card argument is a null pointer. SCF_STATUS_BADHANDLE The specified terminal has been closed or is invalid. SCF_STATUS_FAILED An internal error occured. SCF_STATUS_NOCARD No card is present in the terminal. EXAMPLES
Example 1: Access a smartcard. SCF_Status_t status; SCF_Terminal_t myTerminal; SCF_Card_t myCard; /* (...call SCF_Session_getTerminal to open myTerminal...) */ status = SCF_Terminal_getCard(myTerminal, &myCard); if (status == SCF_STATUS_NOCARD) { printf("Please insert your smartcard and try again. "); exit(0); } else if (status != SCF_STATUS_SUCCESS) exit(1); /* (...go on to use the card with SCF_Card_exchangeAPDU()...) */ ATTRIBUTES
