Android Emulator, dynamically changing sd cards

does anybody know a way to change sd cards in avd dynamically?

emulator -avd avd_8 -sdcard /TMP/sdcard1.img

the command line starts a new instance of the avd. I need to do the stuff on the running avd

Regards,
Galym

I don't believe you can do this.

The SDCard mounts on boot. Physical devices have hardware sensors to detect insertion/removal of an SD card, which the AVD presumably cannot handle.

I haven't tried this, but you might be able to first unmount the SD card in the Android main menu on the emulator, and then use the avd command to remount a different one.
