Hi.

I got a bunch of old Mini and regular sized SD memory cards (16 MB to 1 
GB), that were used for old Palm smartphones and PDAs. I thought maybe I 
could use them in Linux. I also have an internal memory card reader to 
handle them on my Debian stable (Kernel v2.6.32-5-amd64 #1 SMP Sun Sep 
23 10:07:46 UTC 2012 x86_64 GNU/Linux) desktop computer.

They can be read and accessed, but I cannot seem to write to them like 
deleting, formatting (even when unmounted), adding files, etc. in my old 
Gnome v2.3.20 desktop. Am I missing something? :( FYI, dmesg/messages of 
my attempts to use them fully can be found in 
http://filebin.ca/LVns4B1M79U/log.txt (over a MB).

Thank you in advance. :)
