100% wrong. This is what the fake is all about: reporting the wrong capacity. And that's why it's necessary to check cards. And that's why it's necessary to point this out to someone who obviously bought a 512 GB fake TF card and refuses to check it (and now ask to do the impossible: Access OS images beyond the real capacity of his fake card). The very same person complains in other posts that he has a bricked board and most obviously the only reason is that his other cards are also faulty.
The reason why I insisted on this is that it's useless to proceed with software issues if you don't rule out simple hardware issues first.
BTW: Both longsleep and I know how to boot multiple OS installations on the same card. Good bye.
