SD card formatting - Raspberry Pi Forums


hi
i'm embarrassed can't past first hurdle of formatting 4g sd card windows machine - used recommended sd association's formatting tool, format size adjustment option on resulting size 58mb, not large enough install of available distributions. understand built-in windows formatting tool formats first partition, not entire disk, seems happening recommended tool above?
tips dweeb has nerdy pretensions doesn't stand chance?
thanks
masha

it not clear why sd formatting tool not giving expected result when have option reset size set.

note, however, if using win32diskimager should not have format sd card first. imaging tool works @ physical level ignoring existing partitioning. time need use sd formatter if trying use noobs need start fat partition large enough hold noobs files.
