Yeah, it's not at all obvious, and in fact it's counter-intuitive: the external slot is mmc1 and the internal is mmc2. (So in your case "Kingson" is probably the external card and "Kingston (2) is probably the internal card.) I solved the problem by changing the volume labels, but the built-in file manager doesn't have that capability. I used a USB reader and labeled my cards with my desktop machine. I labeled mine "8gbinternal" and "8gbexternal" and made sure I put them in the respective slots. Be careful using Windows to label your cards, especially if they are identical. I had a heck of a time sorting them out that way and ended up using Linux instead. Windows XP apparently got confused by identical cards in the same reader and forever after when I inserted the second card it kept displaying the label from the first one on the icon even though the "properties" information was correct. I think the tablet relies on knowing which slot is which and doesn't care about the cards' volume labels. Having unique volume labels definitely helps the human, though. Regardless, you do need to keep in mind "mmc1" vs. "mmc2" for various operations with the N800.
