Hi.
although nobody, except myself in my mind, asked this matter here, I like to share the result of the digging, because this Great Forum gave me all the fragments I needed, and since I had quite a job to gather all the info about mapfilenames for zumo 550, my ancient gps-compass with wildly winding needle...
I humbly hope this gives help for some other lonely rider with multiple maps...
ZUMO 550 inventory:
SD:
Suppmap = gmapsupp.img
ZUMO device:
Suppmap1 = gmapsupp.img
Suppmap = gmapsup2.img
PROM = gmapprom.img
Dir DB = gmapoem.img (not selectable...)
bye, f

On the Zumo 660 the file gmapsup2.img doesn't work.
Since I don't need my Garmin US map I tried a few more things to load 2 separate maps. With the OSM map as gmapsupp.img I want to load Malsingmaps as secondary.
Malsing as gmapprom.img allowed me to select it, but then it wouldn't allow me to de-select it. No good, since the two overlap. On the display Malsing blocked out OSM in the border area.
Next, I tried Malsing as gmapoem. Similar, except there is no checkbox next to Malsing and OSM could not be de-selected any more, either.
I will need to fall back to the Mapsource method.
Regards,
Peter.Last edited by Beddhist; 9th August 2013 at 03:29 AM.

I believe Caty's post #1 is still correct and I didn't think gmapsup1.img was made available on sd card by any recent fw, and so still only gmasupp.img in sd Garmin folder for zumos including 660. Originally Posted by Giomen

Easy way to check what map name/paths are available, look at your Inventory page and compare to what's posted by fiat_lux for his 550 in the post above yours to get the correct map naming conventions. If gmapsup2.img doesn't work, try gmapprom1.img.'Thanking Posts' are banned.
