### Required Reading
|
|
|
|
This is an add-on section for formatting an SD card to work with the 3DS.
|
|
|
|
If the 3DS already recognizes the SD card, this guide is not required.
|
|
|
|
'Tis page be fer Linux users only. If you are not on Linux, check out the [Formatting SD (Windows)](formatting-sd-(windows)) or [Formatting SD (Mac)](formatting-sd-(mac)) pages.
|
|
|
|
### Instructions
|
|
#### Section I - Determining which slot your SD card is in
|
|
|
|
1. Make sure your SD card is **not** inserted
|
|
1. Launch the Linux Terminal
|
|
1. Type `watch "lsblk"`
|
|
1. Insert your SD card into your PC
|
|
1. Observe the output. It should match something like this:
|
|
```
|
|
NAME MAJ:MIN RM SIZE RO TYPE MOUNTPOINT
|
|
mmcblk0 179:0 0 3,8G 0 disk
|
|
└─mmcblk0p1 179:1 0 3,7G 0 part /run/media/user/FFFF-FFFF
|
|
```
|
|
1. Take note of the device mount point. In our example above, it was `mmcblk0`
|
|
+ If `RO` is set to 1, make sure the lock switch is not slid down
|
|
1. Hit CTRL + C to exit the menu
|
|
|
|
#### Section II - Formatting the card
|
|
|
|
![](https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/8/85/Cfdisk_screenshot.png)
|
|
|
|
1. Type in `sudo cfdisk /dev/(device mount point from above)`
|
|
1. On each partition, hit `Delete`
|
|
1. Create a new Primary partition that covers the size of your entire SD card
|
|
+ This will create a new partition with the linux filesystem
|
|
1. Select type and take a look at the menu
|
|
1. Find "W95 FAT32" and take note of the code on the left side of that text
|
|
1. Press any key, then enter the code you took note of in the previous step
|
|
1. Hit enter, then hit Quit
