Well, I really don't know if it was formatted when I bought it, 2 years
ago.  What puzzles me, is that 2.4 mounts it normally...

This is the hex dump of begginning (problematic no-name 64Mb card):

0000000: e900 002a 6453 777c 4948 4300 0220 0100  ...*dSw|IHC.. ..
0000010: 0200 0100 00f8 0c00 2000 0800 3700 0000  ........ ...7...
0000020: c9f3 0100 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000  ................

0000040: 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000  ................

And this is the SanDisk 32Mb card which mounts normally under 2.6:

0000000: e900 0020 2020 2020 2020 2000 0220 0100  ...        .. ..

0000030: 4d45 2020 2020 4641 5431 3220 2020 0000  ME    FAT12   ..
0000040: 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000  ................


Maybe I should try to reformat the card in the reader?  My camera has
'delete all images' but no 'format card' I'm sorry...
