I tried big fat32 and it simply did not work - the bootloader from SD was not 
launched. I changed it to small FAT16 and it started working.

Yup, but currently QtMoko cant do autodetection, i doubt that SHR and Android 
can do it (will they found my mp3 on random partition?).

With Qtmoko it is after manually editing /etc/fstab and Storage.conf.

If you dont want to edit those files use my scheme. If you want different 
scheme, edit them - after all it's just two lines...

For me this topic is finished now.
