/dev/sda1 ???? Looks like that's the problem.
On my PC, the device file is /dev/uba, and if I format the SD card to
make it link to /dev/uba1, it doesn't work.
this may give you some help:
1. mke2fs /dev/sda (or /dev/uba ?)
2. fdisk /dev/sda , then the fdisk may tell you there is no DOS
partition table, has created automatically. and then you write change
to SD card and exit (I forget the exact command, maybe w or q ?)
