SD card is not recognized in CWM recovery mode?

[iomega311]

So, I have a 64gb SanDisk SD card formatted in exFAT format.
When I boot into recovery mode in CWM, it does not show an external SD card.
I even went as far as trying to manually mount the SD card... but when I tried, it said that the SD card was not mountable.

Is there any way to fix this... to make it be recognized in CWM recovery mode?

Format card to fat32. Don't think cwm can read exfat

I think you might be right...
Im going to format to fat32 and then see if it makes a difference.

Yup! exFAT was the culprit!

I formatted to fat32 and now CWM recovery can mount the SD card.
FYI, if it helps anyone else that comes across this same issue... it took me a while to find a good program to format my card...

I found one that someone created that worked like a charm!

The simple answer is Yes . Install PhilZ Touch 4 Recovery 4.88.5. All credit goes to PhilZ and all CWM folks :good:

PhilZ Touch 4 Recovery 4.88.5 based on CWM 6.0.2.9 will support both ext4 and exFAT filesystem under recovery mode.
