How to run android emulator with sd card

Question

I download and build android 1.5r3 source. I did 'launch 1' and then 'make'.

And when it is done, I run my emulator like out/host/darwin-x86/bin/emulator -sdcard sd256m.img

But when I click 'Gallery', it said 'No Media Found'. I am sure the sd card i created (sd256m.img) has images in there.

Can you please tell me why I don't see any images in the sd card?

Answer 1

How did you make that SDCard image file? Did you create it with the AVD tool or did you use mksdcard? Also, did you try it by specifying the full path to the sd256m.img file?
