You should be able to reformat it with Gparted
Thanks; good idea, but it doesn't work. Gparted just keeps telling me that
it's scanning all devices while the card reader repeatedly blinks the
access light.
I should also report that cfdisk appeared to create a new partition, to
change it to FAT32 (LBA), and to write the partition table, all with no
error messages. However, on popping the card out of the reader and
reinserting it, the card is as dead as it was before I ran cfdisk. Not
surprising really...
assuming your card reader can handle cards > 2G.
I'd wondered about that. One of my readers won't even acknowledge that
there's a card inserted (at least, according to /var/log/messages). The
other one recognised the card before it got zapped. And 'df' reported that
it had going on 4 GB of free space on it at that time. Both of these card
readers are plainly labelled "USB2.0"
