[ts-7000] Re: lost original sd card boot image, get trouble with creating a new sd boot image

["tanganyang1985" <>]

Thanks for quick response.

I think you are right, the sd card I am using now has only one partition.
 
One more question, what is the size should I allocate the sd card? is it 
something like : partition 1: 10 MB, partition 2: 10 MB and partition 3 980 MB?
