[SOLVED][SOLUTION IN POST] Change storage mount points in CM7 - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

When I install the TouchWiz framework for MIUI on CyanogenMod 7, the internal storage mount point is changed from /mnt/sdcard to /mnt/emmc and vice versa for the external SD card.
How do I change this back, as the apps do not recognize my SD card when it is set up like this.
Apologies if this has been asked before.
P.S: In case you were wondering why I need the TW framework on CM7, it is for the Samsung app store.

I have solved the issue myself. Using root explorer (or pulling the file in adb, editing it and pushing it back), open /etc/vold.fstab. It should look like this:
Code:
## Vold 2.0 Generic fstab

## Format: dev_mount <label> <mount_point> <part> <sysfs_path1...>

## mount_point - Where the volume will be mounted
## part - Partition # (1 based), or 'auto' for first usable partition.
## <sysfs_path> - List of sysfs paths to source devices
######################

# USB storage device
dev_mount usbdisk /mnt/usbdisk auto /devices/platform/s3c_otghcd/usb
In this file, do the following edits:

# external sdcard
dev_mount [B][COLOR="red"]emmc[/COLOR][/B] /mnt/[B][COLOR="red"]emmc[/COLOR][/B] auto /devices/platform/s3c-sdhci.2/mmc_host/mmc1
# USB storage device
dev_mount usbdisk /mnt/usbdisk auto /devices/platform/s3c_otghcd/usb
That is it. I still don't understand what in the TouchWiz framework causes this issue, but I don't have the need to dig deeper.

Mount External SD as Internal SD/USB Storage

Good Day,
I am trying to mount External SD (32GB) as USB Storage/Internal SD on my xTouch 506 smart phone (already rooted). Below is the vold.fstab. I've tried all the options but nothing is happening. Can anyone please help me in this?
