I do not use the camera/s to read the SD and SDHC cards on any of the four
operating systems - mostly because it easier to carry one card reader for all
the cameras and PDAs than the various connecting cords.

If the card is FAT16, OS/2 recognizes it immediately.  There is of course a
2GB limit to FAT16, so my 4 GB SDHC cards are FAT32.  To be used in OS/2, like
all FAT32 drives, they have to have LVM information added to them.

Also, the FAT32 driver can be fussy about partition sizing so on occasion with
a FAT32 drive I have used DFSee to slightly resize the drive so OS/2 can see
it.  I think this has to do with how sectors are read by the OS/2 FAT32 driver.
