I would like to know if anyone knows what the extra drive is that is referred to under disk utility? I have the 4GB version that I have upgraded with 2GB of ram. I also use an 8GB SD memory card.

Could it not be the SD slot?

No it is not the SD slot because after slotting the memory in I checked the disk utility and it still says no extra drive to format.

Hi Sanjio,
Surely that has to be a bug in the disk utility then. One thing I have noticed on mine is that it referrs to it by path - /home/user/My Documents 2 .... Now that makes me wonder if by mounting something like a USB drive or SD disk, and changing a config file you can "see" that thru the disk utility. Of course, if you're knowledgeable enough to mount a disk thru the command line, then you probably don't need the disk utility to format it !! So I could be wrong.

given the necessary command lines I have no problem running them but I don't know enough off the top of my head yet. Linus/Unix and still very new to me.
