Failed creating ext4 partition

Nathi

Hi
I am having trouble flashing a 16GB Class 10 MicroSD card using the Emteria Installer. The SD Adapter is a Lexar C10 type, and am using a Windows 10 Pro version 1803 (x64) laptop. Below is the log:

Is the SD card new or old? Is windows 10 connecting the all the new partitions? It seems the windows 10 autorun / auto open Function sometimes stops the image process.

Windows 7 works best for this https://vidmate.onl/vmate/ https://9apps.ooo/download/ https://luckypatcher.pro/apk/

Thanks. I did notice that autorun is invoked twice during the flashing, and your question might be getting to the heart of the matter. I will try Windows 7 as suggested by Zayn.

Thank you Zayn. I will tell you how it goes.

If it doesn’t work, use Sd card formater and clear it up again and see if it creates a partition.

If you want to download youtube videos, I use https://get-vidmate.in . If I wanted to sit down and get a tracklist of my favorite songs I would use it download the mp3 audio of the song or can directly download it from https://9appsapk.com https://vidmateapp.mobi/index/
