As long as the bootloader is unlocked, can we edit the mount table now? to mount the sdcard as /sdcard and internal memory as /mmc(or something else?)
All -
I installed Globatron HC and am noticing that my SDCARD is mounted to /sdcard2.
The problem is that all downloads are doing to /mnt/sdcard/download (internal memory) and my gallery does not even look at /sdcard2.
Any clue how to make /sdcard2 my default and get applications to start scanning this?
Currently when you plug in the S3 it mounts the internal sd partition /sdcard is it possible to change it to mount / ?
Cheers.
On my Archos 101IT I formatted the (removable) SD card as ext3. This was required for TitaniumBackup. When UrukDroid is booted, it mounts the file system as:
/dev/block/vold/179:17 on /mnt/storage/sdcard type ext3 (rw,nosuid,nodev,noexec,noatime,nodiratime,fmode=0 666,dmode=0777,errors=continue,data=ordered)
I do not want the fmode/dmode since these make it impossible to protect files on the storage (again, as required by TitaniumBackup).
Where can I change what to have this file system mounted with the right options on reboot?
ANSWER:
Urukdroid has a special script, /system/bin/mount_sdcard.sh, that mounts the SD card upon boot. This script understands (V)FAT and EXT4. Anything else is left to the vold automounter. Archos modded vold so it could do a bit more than stock A 2.1 vold, e.g., mount EXT3 file systems.
I upgraded the file system on the SD card to EXT4, and now mount_sdcard.sh mounts the SD card upon boot with the correct mount options.
Thanks to $aur0n for helping me solve this.
Upgrading an EXT2 or EXT3 file system to EXT4 is easy, see https://ext4.wiki.kernel.org/index.php/Ext4_Howto#Converting_an_ext3_filesystem_to_ext4 .
Good Evening,
I'm wondering if anyone can help with swapping my internal and external memory on my new Sumvision Android X2?
I've tried editing the vold.fstab file, but all I seem to do is tell Android that the External SD-Card is now the internal flash card.
I get the same problem with using the External 2 Internal App.
The only four lines in the vold.fstab file that aren't commented are:
loop_mount loop /mnt/VIRTUAL_CDROM
dev_mount sdcard /storage/sdcard0/external_sdcard auto /devices/platform/AMLOGIC_CARD/card_host/memorycard0 /devices/platform/aml_sd_mmc.0
dev_mount flash /storage/sdcard0 auto /devices/platform/mtd/mtd6/avnftlg /devices/virtual/mtd/mtd6/avnftlg
asec flash
And all I've tried (so far) is swap the words in bold.
Any ideas will be very much appriecated.
Thanks
