What?? Are you going crazy with some SD CARDS?

Cannot you mount them an dmesg shows you something like previous logfile?

Don’t worry man, the soution is very simple:

reboot your eeepc, press F2 to enter BIOS and set the Variable: “OS Installation” to: [Finished].

That’s all, all of your sd cards will begin to work without any problems!

see you!
