my sdext is ext4 i did it with mini partition tool cant figure out what is wrong can someone help me
You may wan to try reflash the ROM. I always install S2E first when I flashed a new CM7 rom.
S2E doesnt work on the new CM9 nightly. Tried wiping everything!

I tried to create an ext partition for a2sd. But the script says that a2sd is not mounted. I partitioned my card with rom manager.
In last roms a2sd was working. Now I use openOptimus, with paolo v6 kernel. Please help!!
since you used rom manager, im assuming you are using clockworkmod.
clockworkmod only supports ext4. check to see if openoptimus supports ext4
I just returned from my brief test-run with DarkTremor ... because it basically trashed my phone (in collaboration with TitaniumBackup). At one point I couldn't get the partition to mount anymore either, so I reinitialized the partition table with parted. At the very least it will allow you to check the partition for errors and rule that problem out.
Like I said, eventually everything fell apart again for me, but it's still worth a try.
Following from this thread, I finally partitioned my sd card and had link2sd installed in my ace.

I moved my apps using apps2sd. I found out there are some remaining data in the phone. Are those data : dalvik-cache (.dex) file and lib files (.so) ? Or those are the game saves data. So, if i use Link2SD, i can completely move those data to sd?
It shows an error when I try to start it.. I could not link any of the apps.
Mount Script Error
Mount script cannot be created.
mount: mounting /dev/block/vold/179:2 on data/sdext2 failed: Device or resource busy

my 2nd partition is on fat32
did u create both partition as primary?
btw i still think link2sd is buggy and annoying. at least in my experience. sometimes it fails to mount partition during booting and just prompt to reboot, or the moved app wouldnt even show in app drawer.
A2SD works perfectly for me.. There aren't many functions as Link2SD but it does the job..

Yes, both are primary as guided from the thread. :S
So any other than link2sd that can fully move an apps including it's data etc. My internal memory getting full soon.
Pahan88, is App2SD free same thing as A2SD?
here if we said a2sd or app2sd it generally means dartremore a2sd. u need to be rooted, and if ur on gingerbread u need to use kernel which support init.d script which is ketut's cfroot kernel. darktremore a2sd can move apps, data and dalvik cache to sdcard
edited: sorry, just realize ur thread title said cm7 kang. ur already rooted and using cfroot. u just need to flash darktremore a2sd via recovery
Thanks.. Do you mind showing me the right thread? I did a search and there are so many threads about it.. I dont even know which one is the right one.
partition ur sdcard with two partition, both primary. 1st partition as fat32 and 2nd partition as ext2/ext3/ext4
get the flashable zip file from its thread here
put it in sdcard, boot into cwm and choose to mount system and mount data.
choose to install zip from sdcard and flash the earlier zip file.
get terminal emulator from market, open it and do
Code:
su
a2sd reinstall
and ur phone will reboot.
when it boot up, open terminal again and do
Code:
su
a2sd cachesdreset
to move dalvik cache to sdcard, or
Code:
su
a2sd datasd
to move data to sdcard
Hi, I got a new sd card 4gb. But I partitioned using CWM. I checked through MiniTool Partition Wizard, it didnt show any 2nd partition but it did shows reduced MB. Partition via CWM is ok?
And no-one points the poor guy to s2e
Hi there. I saw the information there. Sounds so simple.. Is there anything I should know before I try it? And im not a guy btw.. THanks ^^

Sorry, but Yea its that simple But if your a frequent backup/restorer kind of person, using advanced mode may get very confusing and you will get force closes as it brings anything you moved to SD-EXT. Don't worry about the Cache size and ext4 journaling in the settings.
to use link2sd with CM7 KANG rom .just mount the second partition as ext3 format.link2sd will work.

Well, reboot in recovery -> advanced -> partition (NOTE: EVERYTHING WILL BE ERASED!!! BACKUP IF NEEDED)
Then boot again, go to Link2SD, select ext4 and reboot.
If you can't link then, try menu -> recreate mount script -> ext3
Press thanks!
I know with a2sdgui, it asks for an a2sd script before it's working, I've never used link2sd before, to OP I followed what the guy above me said than downloaded darktremors a2sd zip script than flashed it than used a2sdgui to move apps to sd-ext, zipaligned and moved and rebuilt dalvik cache and it's been working flawlessly for me, but to respect what above user mentioned, whatever works best for you... There's ungaze and darktremor a2sd script on these forums, do the search on goggles for em

Try partitioning it with cwm or format ur second partition in cwm.
-Nisha
i partitioned using cwm only,... and was able to mount and format sd-ext in cwm5

Dude this s common issue.. First try from ext2 to fat32.. Which ever mounts choose that.. My partition is ext2 but linksd choosed ext4.. So its like hit & trial rule for me.
I'm on lupohirp's cm9 beta4. i created a secondary partition for data2sd but the phone just doesn't mount it, i tried link2sd, darktremor data2sd , but none recognize the partition?
Is this the problem with everyone or just me?
Any help?
I have tried all the formats i.e fat32/ext2/ext3 but to no avail
How did you partitioned it? Try it like this (using AmonRa recovery) - this celly is quite different, but idea is same...
