Hi guise,
I just partitioned my SD (~2GB) to have 512MB for A2SD through GParted with the ext4 filesystem (I'm using fla.sh X1 ROM, so I assume it supports ext4, right?).
The trouble is that on ext4 Manager, it says that I indeed do have ~500MB of /system/sd, but in A2SDGUI, it says I only have 24MB of SD-EXT storage.
Are /system/sd and SD-EXT different? If so, how do they differ? I thought they're the same.
Oh, and an additional question: how can I know that DT-A2SD is functioning correctly?
I just got into the flashing-custom-roms bandwagon, so please bear with me if I ask stupid questions. I'll refer to the search button and Google, but when I can't find the answer/solution, I'll ask here if that's fine.
Thanks in advance!
I'd post images, but xda won't let members with a small number of posts link to external sources.

It's known that a2sdgui doesnt show the correct information about partition. So dont worry, it show 24mb to me as well.

So I should not be worried?
And for the second question? How can I test that the a2sd is working?

Well check internal storage, it should has (maybe) 130mb free app.
Anyways, titanium backup shows the right information about storage, and it shows how much space is using the sd-ext partition.
Other way is a2sdgui should say "sd are on app", dalvik must be (if you choose it) on sd-ext as well.
Another way is in terminal emulator. First type "su" then enter. then "a2sd repair". Somewhere on the text it shows, it must says "dalvik is on sd" and maybe (dont remember if it does, I dont have my phone right now) something like "app is on sd" (not sure).
Cheers!!
bug about storage is noted.
will try to fix in next update

You mean a ext4 partition that is more than 2GB ?
Sent from my GT-S5830 using XDA App
I was searching for that, I have a MB526, Motorola Defy + with gingerbread, and flashed with the a2sd 2.7.5.3 beta 4.
I took a little more than 2gb for internal storage. If there are no problems, I could test it.

Hi All,
I have asked this question a few days back and now i got a solution for this so posting the details here.
So here are tips and tricks on how to partition your SDCARD and still get it detected by the Phone.
Ohk so first off all credits
this method is not my own i have got tips from here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=11687387&postcount=6
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=811548 <- check the first post right after the quoted portion. That also suggest that last partition is used by froyo.
Based on this i started on the experiments and this is what i found.
Note : I have 3 partition right now.
500 MB = vfat first partition
1.5 GB = ext2 - kept for linux dualbooting experiments
5.4 GB = vfat second partition.
Based on my experiments this is what i can see.
first and last partition should be vfat.
first partition is available in recovery mode.
last partition is detected by froyo.
So if you want to use multiple partition then you need to make sure of keeping the following things in mind..
Note to MOD : Mod i thought this is related to DEV hence posted in this if this sounds more like a Q&A or other forum material please move the post to correct forum.
And why would I need it or what's the advantage of doing this?

Right now nothing of use to normal user.
however as dev's are working on custom kernel and DooMLorD working on custom kernel manager and ROM manager scripts.
I thought having mutiple partitions can also help. So did an experiment .
However explicitly for me its basic usage is for Experiments on Linux dual booting on X10i

Links2SD moves much more data to SD than native Froyo.
And also, I can use the SD as storage without the apps becoming unavailable.
And I can move any app whether it supports it or not!

Alright so you added one more task for my testing.
1) check how to automount other partitions
2) check Link2SD working
give me some time and i will check and report back that.
This is good info mate. Good news (hopefully) for those of use that prefer Link2SD.

hey BTW can somebuddy point me to a place where i can purchase good SDCARD say for 16GB or more size. I am currently stuck with 8GB stock card by SE.
and you can guess it gets preety small for testing these stuff.

Link2SD i tried installing however it seems to have some issues detecting my partition.
I have
following layout right now
800MB - vfat - part1
1.6 GB - ext2 - part2
5 GB - vfat - part3
so we might need to look at the source code of the application

Yeah, Link2SD detects the second primary partition only,
so maybe we can talk to the developer to implement a workaround

Does it do all this automatically.. I mean is there any special script or kernel required..?

1. You first use the "storage" menu to create a storage file (default 500MB) to be used as a partition. This partition is then automatically formatted to ext2 and mounted on the device startup.
2. From the "apps" menu you select an application and you have a list of the movable files.
3. You move/restore the files you wish.
Of course, don't do it for applications that start on boot, because the storage won't be mounted until the sd card is visible.

Is this only for 2.2 or can it be used for 2.1?
It can be used with 2.1 as it doesn't move the app itself (as the 2.2 system does), it moves the internal data in /data/data/<package>.
(requires root).
Glad to see the Dev himself here.
Hope many people benefit from this App.

Hell mate. I tried this with 500mb.

Then i formatted my sd card and tried with 50mb and again it stuck at 25mb.
Why is this problem occuring ? Also i have a 16gb sdhc which is class2
Hm, perhaps a problem with your SD card ?
Try this from shell:
dd if=/dev/zero of=/mnt/sdcard/rallsd/storage bs=1024 count=102400 (for 100MB).
this is similar to the command used by my app. If it also stucks, then it seems that there's an error with your SD card (chkdsk ?)
If it works, notify me and I 'll take a look.

I *think* it could be because gingerbread roms have native app2sd support which could conflict with link2sd as both look for 2nd partition?

if you just want to move app to sdcard then you should try my step.
i'm using Paul's Mini CM7Pro which already including native app2sd. So all i have to do is making all three partitions (fat32 5,65 GB--ext2 1,4 GB--the rest for linux swap). Now if you install any apps, they won't taking internal storage as much as before.

Iva also found that multi-mount sd lite does the trick, you dont have to unmount the card from andorid in order to use it (fat32 disk) and so you can access and use the disk as usual from your pc and from you phone at the same time. It for free on the market and is much quicker than mounting using the system tray app!!

No, its possible, you would need to write a script which automounts the ext4 partition at boot as vold won't do that and fixes permissions, as you would get lots of fcs without.

i think he talks about formatting the whole sdcard with ext4 and mount that partition as sdcard for performance purposes. Correct me if i'm wrong, but thats how i understood that post. I actually tried the same a few months ago, there really seems to be increased perfomance of the sdcard and using fat32 on a linux devices doesn't make too much sense for me anyways.

I always try and use ext4 in my sd cards. Performance seems to be better. The only reason I ever use FAT32 is so that I can view content in Windows.
No sir. U have to use a partitioning tool to format your SD vard. I am a noob. Learned this technique in xda. It's called a "minitool partition wizard home edition". U can create different number of formats all primary though. I used ext4 for a long time. But now I use ext2. The computer only recognises the first primary partition. So the ext2/4 will not be recognised by the pc and with the help of link2sd or data2sd U'll be able to use it as your internal memory if your phone memory is really tiny. It's related to performance but first its related to expanding your internal memory.

u mean 2.34 GB for app storage, right? because rezound has approximately 11 GB for data storage (the phone storage).
from the subject if u mean something like app2sd darktremor script, super app2sd script, cronmod data2sd/ext2sd script or any others. All these scripts have 2 specific partitions for both the app and data by using partitioned sd card, i've used for some my old phones.
i've read related threads here for seeking the function too but never find at least one special thread about this kind of modding or other rom threads that provide data2script mod in their roms. Honestly i need it too
may be u have to make some gambling here for trying to use universal data2sd/ext2sd or any kinds which compatible for rezound in general hacking modding thread

Look at Link2SD... I have been using it since the days of my HTC Aria, it essentially makes your programs partition as large as you have SD card partition space and it has a nice interface. You do have to partition your SD card though, adding a partition specifically for Link2SD and then the application creates symbolic links in the normal partition for apps that point to the sd card. Make sure you read the instructions on how to use it though, or you will be wasting your time (use Link, not move).

Look at Link2SD... I have been using it since the days of my HTC Aria, it essentially makes your programs partition as large as you have SD card partition space and it has a nice interface. You do have to partition your SD card though, adding a partition specifically for Link2SD and then the application creates symbolic links in the normal partition for apps that point to the sd card. Make sure you read the instructions on how to use it though, or you will be wasting your time (use Link, not move).

I'll give that a try thanks
Update: Worked like a charm thanks!
