<p>The <code>mksdcard</code> tool lets you quickly create a FAT32 disk image that you can load in the
|
|
emulator, to simulate the presence of an SD card in the device. Because you can specify an SD
|
|
card while creating an AVD in the AVD Manager, you usually use that feature to create an SD card.
|
|
This tool creates an SD card that is not bundled with an AVD, so it is useful for situations
|
|
where you need to share a virtual SD card between multiple emulators.</p>

|
<h3>Usage</h3>
|
|
<pre>
|
|
mksdcard -l <label> <size> <file>
|
|
</pre>
|

|
|
<h3>Options</h3>

|
<tr>
|
|
<td><code>-l</code></td>
|
|
|
|
<td>A volume label for the disk image to create.</td>
|
|
</tr>
|
|
|
|
<tr>
|
|
<td><code>size</code></td>
|
|
|
|
<td>An integer that specifies the size (in bytes) of disk image to create. You can also
|
|
specify size in kilobytes or megabytes, by appending a "K" or "M" to <size>. For
|
|
example, <code>1048576K</code>, <code>1024M</code>.</td>
|
|
</tr>
|
|
|
|
<tr>
|
|
<td><code>file</code></td>
|
|
|
|
<td>The path/filename of the disk image to create.</td>
|
|
</tr>
|
|
</table>
|
|
|
|
<p>Once you have created the disk image file, you can load it in the emulator at startup using
|
|
the emulator's <code>-sdcard</code> option. For more information, see <a href=
|
|
"{@docRoot}guide/developing/tools/emulator.html">Android Emulator</a>.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>The usage for the <code>-sdcard</code> option is as follows:</p>
|
|
<pre>emulator -sdcard <file></pre>

<h3>Example</h3>
|
|
<pre>mksdcard -l mySdCard 1024M mySdCardFile.img</pre> |
