You may be able to revive the card with the official SD card formatter. https://www.sdcard.org/downloads/formatter_4/ Unfortunately, no linux version. -----Original Message----- From: mike <mike@mikenjane.net> Date: Sat, 11 May 2013 22:07:05 To: <opensuse-arm@opensuse.org> Subject: Re: [opensuse-arm] RaspberryPI On Saturday, May 11, 2013 06:46:49 PM Volker Kuhlmann wrote:

What are you seeing? Does it even start to boot? How are you writing the sdcard? I had trouble writing with dd, mainly because the computer doesn't have a card reader, and I was using a USB adapter.
A USB adapter has no influence whatsoever on writing a flash memory card with dd. If it doesn't work, you need to throw away your USB adapter.
You are right. After I had the problem, I discovered that it wasn't the adapter, but the sdcard I was trying to write to. Turns out I couldn't even format it so I used another and it worked fine.
