I have a problem with SD Android installing?

Hi;
I use WP7 on my HTC HD2.
Also I use SD Android and i start android from magldr.
When i want to install SD android on my "HP 16 GB Class 10 micro SD card" , i have installing problem.
While installing it freezes. I can't finish installing.
I don't see main screen.
But when i install same android rom on 2 GB micro SD card , there isn't any installing problem.
It runs perfectly.
Why does this problem occur on 16 GB Class 10 HP micro SD card?
Thanks a lot...

first of all this should be in the Q&A section.
is your SD card formatted to run dual boot? was the 2nd partition for Android set to Primary? also you don't install SD ROM, you just copy it to your SD & set magldr to run AD from SD

If you are dual booting you should have two partions.The android partions should be fat32 32kb cluster size and both partions should be set to primary.

SD card memory help

I have 2gb memory card with 256mb partition but for some reason I only have a total of 1.2gb.
And one of my backups has also disappeared, I think its inside the SD card somewhere but can't find, it not in the clockwork recovery folder no more
Now I only have 117mb free, with no backups, that sucks
Can anyone help

Best solution I have is to format your SD, remember that you partioned your SD so it will only show part of your size on your phone

Minitool Partition Wizard
hello my recommendation is to format the sd scratch and redo your partitions using MiniTool Partition Wizard again

Be careful with partitioning, you ALWAYS need to backup the data before doing such thing.

It needs to be in FAT32, so copy whatever is on it off it, and use EaseUS Partition Home free version to format it FAT32

Thanks!
I don't have a dedicated SD Card reader in my possession, but an old BlackBerry phone did the trick.
I had to format it FAT32 (Primary), logical didn't work.

Virtual sd card

Hey, I'm too cheap to buy an sd card lol, and I was wondering if I could repartition some of my userdata partition as a virtual sd card? I want to reallocate 4 gb if that helps. Thanks!
