Re: raspberry pi sd cards

Anyway, on the assumption that something is wrong with the SD card, are there are known good SD cards I can buy locally? The list at http://elinux.org/RPi_SD_cards is not helpful, and seems to be full of contradictions. I have read stories of people spending lots of money on SD cards and finding none of them work, so am a bit nervous about doing this myself. Thanks -- Brian May I bought one of those (chinese) ssd's that kogan had on special some time ago and am running ubuntu on it without a glitch. It just worked. Roger
