Only one partition.  fdisk only recogized 1 gig.  I bought an SD with
pre-installed OS on it from TS (invoice #34396, in case someone needs
to look it up and see if there was an error).  Perhaps they sent an
older version of Linux without the correct driver installed.  I put a
2G in the second slot, made two partitions from the available space
and mounted them.

Even though I'm a long time *NIX user (over 25 years) I'm completely
capable of making that kind of mistake.  Thanks for the question.

fdisk reported:
Disc /dev/sdcard1/disc0/disc: 1016 MB, 1016332288 bytes
16 heads, 32 sectors/track, 3877 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 512 * 512 = 262144 bytes

                  Device  Boot Start   End   Blocks  Id  System
/dev/sdcard1/disc0/part1           1  1939   496368  83  Linux
/dev/sdcard1/disc0/part2        1940  3877   496128  83  Linux
