Newbie ? about honeycomb nook color

[smiller777]

I used an 8GB card to run honeycomb off the card in my nook color. Settings says I only have 100 MB left on the card. What should I have done differently so that I can use the SD card for storage? I am really new to this, so real easy directions would be greatly appreciated.

If I recall correctly, the image is a 4GB image, therefore once you put it on your card, you card will only be partitioned to use 4GB. If you want to use your entire card then resize the partition. Unfortunately, windows does not recognize multiple partitions on a SD/microSD card. The easiest way to modify partitions on a card with multiple partitions is to do so in linux.

1) Install linux (in a virtual machine if you wish)
2) Run gparted
3) Select your microSD card
4) Resize the last partition to occupy the remainder of your card.

I tried to copy and paste the link originally... let's see if I did it right this time!

Nope that seems to error out!
