[rush3112]

i want to install more than one map on my SD card. i have palm T3 with tom tom 5.21 running perfectly on it. i want to install maps on my SD card with card R/W as its much faster.

problem::: most of the maps on CD has this follwing files when i copy them to route folder on sd card "tom tom" the first map installed works fine.... but as all the maps has same kind of file most with same name, when i try to install second map it ask to over write the previous files.....in the end...when i start tom tom on palm it doesnt show any of the maps.....!!!!!!!! so i have to install and use one map at time....this is tooooooooooooooo much painful!!!!!


setup.dat
poi.dat
traffic.dat
tmccodes.dat
cline.dat
mapinfo.dat
faces.dat
cnode.dat

two other files in the folder with file names depending on the map you choose. For example for the West map, the file names are:
canada.mid
canada.pna

Each map is normally installed into a folder with the same name format as the map files.

Ie Great-Britain-Plus_maps

Files should only be installed in this way, and never to the root of the SD card.

I have GB maps in one folder, and Deutchesland_map as another folder, again with the DE maps and POI's all within that folder.

Why not get the TT installer to install the maps direct to your SD card via
your PC? Or use the option to create the folders on your PC (ie create a folder called TT, and get the installer to place files in there), and simply copy the whole folder to your SD card.
