Hello Etienne,

OK thanks.
We did get some stuff off yesterday but at a struggle -- what happened was 
that one of the guys with a laptop downloaded some "make USB a virtual 
serial port" software for Windows and Mac and got the stuff off through a 
proprietary "NaviRead" program or somesuch. There was no other way it was 
coming off. *However*, only waypoints seemed to be recorded - not tracks. 
I guess the SD card wasn't full as no error message came up when it was 
switched on, it was indicating the "writing to card" symbol, and it 
recorded the waypoints.

So how do I mount and read the SD card on either Linux or Windows?

Thanks,
Nick
