Hi Cerial_Killer

As a test i created 2 partitions on a 8GB card. Rockbox on the first partition and some music on the second.
Rockbox loaded fine...
But did not show the second partition!!!  Do i need to install Rockbox the automated way (RockboxUtility-v1.4.0) for this to work??????
Thanks..

saratoga:
The standard build on the d2 does not have multiple partitions enabled, so to use two 8GB partitions you'd have to add #define HAVE_MULTIVOLUME to firmware/config/cowon-d2.h and then compile that build. I don't think that is going to help with your 256GB card though.

Thanks! saratoga,  good to have that info!......have you ever seen anyone succefully using a 256GB with the d2, d2+?

PM'd the OP already but information for anyone else with a D2/D2+, I've been using a 256GB SD card on and off on mine (last Rockbox build / bootloader I created was from April 2018 / fat.c alteration to avoid a PANIC error).  Card I have is

PNY Elite Performance 256 GB High Speed SDXC Class 10 UHS-I   (still sold at Amazon US)

Used this on my Gigabeat F first, then that eventually fell out of favor as the Cowon is much smaller and the battery life is still fantastic.   I have filled it up a few times and never really had any issues with it although I can't say it's a daily driver at this point, more of a backup device that I use at work sometimes.

I never moved up to a 512GB PNY card as the prices, as a few of may have noticed actually jumped in the last few years and only recently started to drop to more reasonable prices.  Although at this point in the game I would probably consider a microSD card only given that it can be re-used in tablets and smartphones.
