It'll see a 70mb boot partition "and" a 3.7GB root partition. Use gparted to expand the 2nd 3.7GB root partition.

Re: [beagleboard] Creating a boot sd from an img file
Thanks for the reply. When I boot the BBB with one of these cards I've created, Angstrom only sees a single 70mb partition, if it's just windows having the problem, shouldn't my BBB show the entire 16gb partition?

Is there > another tool besides Win32DiskImager or something else I can look at? in "linux" you can use a tool called "gparted" to expand the 2nd "ext4" partition. Your windows machine doesn't understand what it's seeing.
