I decided to figure from the responses, that I wasnt as stupid as I look process-wise, and tried the suggestions and made sure I was doing the 'right' partitions. No go. So, I did the old, well let's go back to a known state. So I put these two cards back into an XO 1.5. A) They didn't boot, and B) they wouldnt re-flash. I then picked another random XO 1.5 with a 4GB card, did the same process, and lo and behold, the 4GB SD card repartioned and formatted without a problem. Therefore, I fear that I must have been an ESD devil this morning when I took the cards out of the machine, and fried them by not taking recommended precautions. I can think of no other plausible reason. But, it appears it's just these two cards, and not the process. Next time, no skipping the wrist strap. Sorry for the bother. Aaargh .. but thanks again for answering quickly and adding even more doisk management tools to the arsenal.
