You are right, that was the right key! We just made another mistake and thought, it wouldn't work.

I use SDcard on 256 Mb, FAT16 formated.
Why the program DiskMan.exe
(Disk Manager for MSX MMC/SD Disk Interface v1.0)
gives out the message:
"Not MMC/SD disk for MSX!"?
Than and how to format SD/MMC-cards?

The 1chipMSX sees the SD card as a SCSI device. The MMC/SD card interface is a completely different device. So you should use MegaSCSI software to use it.

So you should use MegaSCSI software to use it.Tried, sform-2.com gives out the message:
" Something error happened!
... abort formatting "

I format the cards on a PC with Windows and they work fine.

What is the size of your card? 32MB?
Be sure you select "FAT" and not "FAT32" or whatever when you format the card on PC.
You don't need to use CP and/or partitions, since OCM supports FAT16. I tested 16MB, 256MB, 1GB and 2GB SD cards and they work without problem.
