Need to format card with Berryboot, how?

Fri Jan 23, 2015 1:42 am

So I got BerryBoot a while ago and installed OpenELEC, and then later, RetroPie. However, I now want to uninstall Berryboot. But when i plug my sd card (16GB) in, i only have a portion of that area, about 63MB. I have already deleted the OSs off using the built in thing, but how do i get all 16GB formated!

If i use windows formatter, it only allows me to format 63mb for the Capacity!

Thanks for even taking the time to read! :D

all you describe is normal.

use the official sd-card formatter. http://www.raspberrypi.org/help/noobs-setup/

P.s. using a subject line like "urgent help needed" will normally mean nobody reacts to it, so I changed it to something more sensible.
