So I originally asked this in Amon_RA's recovery thread, but was kindly asked to move it here. So here's my issue.
My G1 is not recognizing or creating any ext partitions using either the manual parted method or the automatic script include in Amons recovery. Using the manual method to make ext2 I get the following error:
Error: Input/output error during write on /dev/block/mmcblk0
Retry/Ignore/Cancel
Fat32 gets created fine.
I used fdisk on my laptop to create the partitions and it seems to take, but once I put the sd card back into my phone it disappears. Taking the card out of my phone and back in my laptop, the ext and swap partitions are gone. Anyone have any idea as to what the problem could be, or is my card just pretty much bricked?

I've been pulling my hair out for the last day trying to figure out why it would act like it partitioned fine, but then when I did a 'print' in parted it would only show one FAT32 partition. I had the EXACT problem the OP was having.
Half my day spent looking for some other resolution and then realized I had another SD card with me (just half the size) and tried it in the Recovery with that one with complete success. No errors or anything. I'm trying Paragon Partition Manager for my larger card, but not finding an option for the ext2 (or other UNIX) formats. It's the free 2010 version so I'm not sure if that makes a difference.
Bad SD Card - Paragon Killing USB Drivers?

So, version 9.0 has the options for the needed Linux partitions. With that, it would appear I have a bum 8GB card. As stated, the 4GB works just fine - both Transcend Class 6 cards. On one PC it was having a difficult time in the formatting process after creating the partition and I had to kill the application via task manager in Windows. Then it got to where my USB port drivers couldn't start so I couldn't read via SD card adapter or USB cable to the phone with the card mounted. I'm in IT so I've dealt with drivers failing before, but I'm finding myself having to ask my friend Google now as even after uninstalling the drivers I have the same result. I'm afraid it might be due to the Paragon application. More on that below.
I installed Paragon on another laptop at home and it went through the process successfully (at least appeared to) with the 8GB card. Joy had returned to my frustrated being and I proceeded to use the restore image to upgrade from ext2 to ext3 - success! - Then it was wipe and flash. All seemed well in the world until I went into the settings after getting into the OS for the first time (again) to look at my secondary SD Card space and found it at "unknown." Looking at the card via Paragon Partition Manager once again it was showing as only two partitions instead of three with the ext3(2) being "unformatted." Just to be sure, I put in the 4GB card to verify in Paragon it's showing as expected (three partitions in correct formats).
Being the stubborn sod I am, I came to work determined to get the 8GB card working and installed Paragon on a test machine (I run a large testing lab) and redid the partitions. Removing and re-adding the partitions on the 8GB with "success" then simply unmounting and mounting the card to the PC revealed the card is definitely the major flaw all along. After mounting it came up as just the two partitions again - FAT32 and unformatted for the 2nd, even though it was only 10 seconds ago it showed successful creation of the three and formatting. Because I'm one to verify a verification I repeated my steps to see the same result. However, not only did I see this same result I now DIDN'T see the SDCard via Explorer, but could via Paragon. Inspection of Device Manager showed the exact same thing as on my home laptop that stopped being able to read the Android phone with card or adapter with card.
So, my last couple days of fighting and frustration were all because of the SD card of which I've never had a problem with it storing data for the last year with many times reformatting and re-applying data. Odd, to say the least. I am back up and running, but now I have USB drivers failing to start problem on two PC's! This is not a concern with the one at work since I'll just restage it, but I'm afraid it might take restaging my laptop for this to be fixed which as we all know is just not very convenient.
Anyhow, the lengthy explanation was more for those like me that were Googling/searching for a long time for a similar situation.
Cheers.
I have a similar problem. One of my SD cards of 1 GB has ext 2 and 3. But the main one of 2 GB can be partitioned only with ext 2. I am using Amon Recovery 1.5.2. When I press create ext 3 I get an error and not even from console it doesn't work, I get upgrade_fs not found.

I would say it IS the same problem and that your card is not being partitioned properly. The reason it can't upgrade from ext2 to ext3 is because there isn't ext2 to begin with even though the partition process gave a "success" result in the Recovery. I'm using the same Amon 1.5.2 as well. It somehow will not format as the space will be there unformatted if you open the card in a partition application with GUI.
Going to the SD Card settings from within the OS you'll see the SD Card secondary use grayed out and showing "unknown."
So what is the solution? What if I buy a new card Class 6 that can't be partitioned?

I would say keep your receipt and return it for another. I've had issues with SD cards before where they kept going corrupt within a day of use and just returned them for another (same brand, same model) that would work fine.
It's not a hardware problem, I managed to partition it after some tries. I think that Amon RA recovery does not recognize the sd card sometimes. It worked after I hit the reboot button in recovery and pull out the battery. After that I went back to recovery and I could partition it.

bug a friend with a linux///mac machine and partition it with that. i've seen lots of problems with usb/partitioning on windows ,and never had the same problem on mac/linux. 3 microsd cards were 'unusable' according to vista, reeformated just fine with osx.
give it a shot.

You verified it worked with looking in the SD card and Phone storage settings?
I've also discovered that the 4GB card that I was able to partition without a problem was one I should've thrown out as I couldn't remember where it came from until after dealing a couple days of constant lockups on the phone (now that things are running off the SD). It was thrown in a drawer due to going corrupt every few days where the data on it was lost/gone/unreadable. Going out to get a new SD card today.
To the statement about bugging someone with a mac/linux, that doesn't appear to be the issue here since it won't work with using Gparted either (at least in my case).
Just an FYI update, that after buying a new (not the lowest end) SDHC class 6 8GB card, it partitioned just fine in the recovery image along with being able to upgrade the ext2 to ext3 then ext4. Now I'm finally seeing the speedy benefits running Cyanogen's latest ROM. No issues since replacing with a good card.

Hi guys,
So it seems I managed to screw something up regarding my SD card while I was messing around with my devices (MT3G 1.2). I figured maybe you can direct me to some things I haven't tried yet.
Here is all the available info:
When trying to access SD card in RA Recovery I get:
E: Can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p1 (or /dev/block/mmcblk0) (No such file or directory)
E: Can't mount SDCARD:
When booted into android, I constantly have "SD Card Removed" in my notifications and not amount of rebooting or reseating the sd card seems to change that.
If I slap the SD card in another device and mount the card on windows, it shows up seemingly alright there. I also tried simply formatting it fresh to FAT32 there and putting it back into my MT3G, but it didn't seem to make a difference.
After trying to format the card, I seem to get these files I haven't heard of before showing up on the card:
qxdm_20100531_060541_2.dm
qxdm_20100531_062913_1.dm
etc, etc... about 10 of them now.
I'm hoping that this is something I can reverse, and not some sort of really bad hardware or driver issue. Any hints or tips would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

That's very odd. qXDm is a program used with CMDA phones to mod ESN's and program them.. Flip phones and such.. not meant for smart phones since we'd have no use for a tool of that nature.
If you're running RA 1.7 then I believe accessing the SD card is out of question anyhow because something is broken with that.. not sure what though but I can't use mine either.
If you can boot into android, try this:
open the dialer and dial
Code:
*#*#4636#*#*
DON'T press call, just wait a sec. - a menu should appear. Choose the first item (phone information, or similar), and scroll down - there should be a button there with something about qxdm on it. Possibly 'disable qxdm'. Try selecting that.
Tried that, but it had "Enable QDSM SD Log", not disable... tried it regardless but made no real change anyway. :/
Did you ever find a solution to this issue? I have the same problem - it occured durring a SAPPIMG.ZIP flashing of my phone - it seems that for some reason QXDM was turned on during this proccess.
Typically, the following fastboot command would turn QXDM SD logging off, but it does not work for me (I believe it may only be available in ENG SPLs).
Code:
fastboot oem enableqxdm 0
Hello everyone, I've found this error using my SD card on my moto x play, anyone know how to fix it ?, I already try to format , hard reset and a different SD card but I had no results.
Error code:

Same thing just happened to me. I clicked FORGET and i can't get the SD càrd to properly format. Not only have i lost all my data when formatted as internal storage, but now i can't get it to work. I've had this MX since launch with no issues.
try formatting it in a PC.

Hi, did u fixed it? I faced with same issue. Im looking for solution, will let you know if i get some.
Even I have the same problem I called customer care and they told me to visit service centre. I also tried factory reset but no use
Same here. I tried format the SD card in a Mac and a PC, tried again with other cards, but I have the same (frustrating) result. The only thing I didn't try yet was restoring the device, and I don't know if is a good idea (seems didn't working for any other person with the same problem).

Hi did you get that resolved?
I am having the same problem. I was using my old MicroSD Card. After the update for Android 6.0.1 it appeared a message saying that the card was corrupted or something like that and i might need to format it. I try to do so and and error appeared while formatting it as Internal so i remove the SD card and restart the cellphone and tried to do it at least as External Storage but i got the same error. So i bought a brand new MicroSD Card Class 10 32 Gb and had the same issue. I did a hard reset and start over and i have the same outcome.
All my SD Cards that i tried to use got recognized on my friends cellphones. Moto G Turbo, Moto G 2nd i got a Moto X play. The difference between them and i is t hat i have Android 6.0.1 and they 6.0.
Does somebody found the solution to this issue? . Which version of Android do you have 6.0 or 6.0.1. Everything got screwed up after the update.
Additional Details:
1. After the error appears the SD card is not being read anymore even if i eject it and insert it again. So i erased the Media Storage Cache and External Extorage Cache, restart the cellphone and put back the SD card again and i got recognized with the message that i need to format it. I try too many time reproducing this issue and i always got the same frustrating result. The SD cards were formatted on Mac and PC and also other Motorola phones and Same ****.
2. Called Motorola Services Desk on USA and LATAM. One of them told me to restore the cellphone to brand new state. I did it and same ****.
3. Am so sad for this not much information available
The same issue is there in many custom ROMs as well. I feel it's got something to do with 6.0.1 rather than the sd card itself.

Will try to factory restore and let you know !

No. I just bought the Moto X play. I was working fine with an Old SD Card. After i upgrade to 6.0 to 6.0.1 the SD Card is not read anymore and showing errors while format it internal or externally. I bought a faster card class 10 and same error. The thing is my friends with no update can read my cards without problems using same cellphones.
My sd card went crazy too after 6.0.1 though after a few tries I did manage to save everything on it into my pc using the sd card adapter. Then I did the slow format in Windows and put it back into the phone. So far it seems working fine.

I will try on a pc...did that on osx with Parallels Desktop...no go!
I have had the same issue as some above. Went wrong two weeks ago when the latest OTA became available from Motorola. The moment the phone restarted I received a warning that the microSD was not formatted, which had been previously set up as internal storage. I am 100% certain that it was the upgrade to 6.0.1 that did this, and not anything physical. I've tried approx 20 different methods to try to format it, both in the now-rooted X Play and on my PC, and even when it appears to be successful it actually isn't. Windows 10's diskpart will show the partitions, whilst most will not. It's as if the card has somehow become write-protected. The 128gb card was not cheap, so if anyone has had the same issue and has a solution, please give any tips you can!
Hello any solution for this ?
I'm willing to try and flash the 6.0 stock. Reporting here asap!
I need a fix for thisssssss! SD Card is not garbage now is it?
no way
sorry guys, bad news! I downgraded to Stock Android 6.0, it didn't fix the problem.
will try with a brand new sdcard...to see if the mxp is somehow very picky...or more simply the sdcard reader is damaged
hi guys!
i have the same issue with new 64 Gb microsd card. did anyone get the decision?
I'm not sure, if this topic has been posted earlier. I tried searching on XDA for a solution for this and couldn't find any!
Problem started when i updated (thru OTG) the device to 6.0.1 (stock), the device was fine that day and after i restarted my phone, it showed "Corrupted SD Card" msg. I tried formatting it as Internal Storage and couldn't succeed (The partition error started popping up!).

SD card corrupted and not recognized? Same where with two SD cards....Must be a software issue...My problem occured during flashing cm13 with apps by adb sideload - basicly via USB....The card is fine and the SD slot seems to be fine but somthing is not due to this error.
Some times it could be a hardware issue.. I lost my sdcard slot

Could be however the sd card is being recognized as broken....so the signal that there is a sd card is made....i think it's a software issue....something is screwed up. Will looke into it later .
I have a issue with my SD card. My phone it show that It's "unsupported."
The SD card, witch works on others phones, and PC, and worked on this phone also...I tried on another S4 and another S8(I even format it on that phone), and it works there. On mine, no...I even tried the tray from another S8 and it won't work, but on the other S8 it will.
Funny is that I took also a old card 2g from another guy and that one worked.
I got a new one 64g from Costco and it didn't work(same card as my buddy has in his S8..working)
Also one time after the latest update ( 29Sept), my card appear to be working for a brief period. but after I took it out and put some stuff on it from Pc, once I put it back in S8, I have the same message...unsupported..and again it works flawlessly on others phones or PC
Formatting in the phone, won't work...it will stop at 20% returning same error: command '22 volume partition disc: 179,0 public' failed with '400 22 Comand failed
Other steps I did...Cleared phone cache and even reset to factory default...No luck
Any thoughts on how to fix this?
Thanks
...nobody?
