Putting Garmin IMG map on SD card…

HI
I have a Garmin map image called gmapsupp. It is too big for the memory on the actual Sat Nav so I’m going to load it onto an SD card. So do I just copy it directly onto the SD? Or do I have to create special folders or what?
Answer #1
Borrowed from another post:
1. Get a 2GB or 4GB SD card (NOT SDHC) and format it FAT or FAT32 2. Create a folder on the memory card called “Garmin” 3. Copy the downloaded IMG file into the Garmin folder on your SD card. 4. Make sure the IMG file is named “gmapsupp.img” on the SD card. 5. Insert the SD card into your Garmin GPS, and browse to your map information on your Garmin GPS and you should see the new maps selected. This can be found on the device via : Tools>Settings>Map>Map Info. (Note: The SD card must remain in your device if you want to use the maps.)
