Total card size
The following table shows the FAT and MTR
partition sizes for different SD card capacities. The
FAT partition size is set automatically according
to card capacity. The size of the MTR partition on
cards 4 GB or smaller is also xed, but cards that
are 8 GB or larger have multiple MTR partitions and
their sizes can be chosen. However, the last MTR
partition is set to ll the remaining space on the card
automatically, so its size cannot be chosen.
