But i did not get the request to format the sd-card. Weird. Guess I just have to waituntil I get my Pine and see then.

That sounds about right. The Android OS is about 1.6GB on one partition, then there's a small boot partition as well. The remaining space is the space you can install all your apps and stuff onto.

If you use the PhoenixCard app, it automatically formats the card before burning the OS image.

Can I copy files to the partition that shows up when i plug in the sdcard to my computer before I boot the first time? and what will the folder layout be on that partition?
Was hoping to put all my APK's and OBB/data files from my tab on the sdcard so it is a easy job copying data files to the right folder and installing the APKs when I recieve the Pine.

*Cant wait till March to get the board* Cry

Can't see why that wouldn't work, in theory. Though like I said, in Windows, for me at least, it doesn't detect the Android install (just says the card is not formatted, would I like to format now?). Only in Ubuntu did it show me all the partitions and stuff.
