EsxDOS doesn’t support NTFS-formatted SD cards, see above. It seems likely that’s why ChromeOS doesn’t write to the card either.

Download the official SD Association formatter on your mac, and reformat the card as FAT32.

Thing is that the card works fine in my DivMMC. Think I’ll reformat and see what happens. Must remember to copy all my snapshots :shock:
