Partion a SD Card

i was wondering if a SD could be partitioned, as used as phone "internal" memory.

used partition manager on kingston micro SD card, using partition magic.
it never transferred the next bit .

is it possible, i dont want to waste another card

i also have this doubt. Windows only reads the first partition of a flash storage device AFAIK. but i have read some unsatisfactory tutorials on doing so.

If you want a card to partition such that a part of it can be treated as internal memory, then it just doesn't sound even theoretically possible!

It's like desiring a system partition like E: drive to act like RAM. Partition maybe used for Virtual (or Swap) memory, but it can never act as RAM.

@arpanmukherjee1: u can't use SD card for phone memory...every phone has preallocated phone memory...

Q:can u make a partition of pendrive?
A:No..bcoz of flash memory

^^ i had similar feelings till that day when my friend showed me this on Sony Xperia
