Root Dark Tremor a2sd..

wow...dang, akazabam! thanks for that info!
Well I was able to get my internal memory up to 344mb :)

akazabam, when trying to move my dalvik to /cache it says there is no space available. right now dalvik os on /sd card.
its running fine and I might just keep it on the card. But any thoughts on how to make room for dalvik in /cache just out of curiosity sake?:D
thanks!
 
Well, dalvik cache should be around ~60 MB, so you need to make sure you keep at the very least 70 MB free in /cache. I don't see how you could possibly have that much space used up in /cache unless you *never* clear cache OR you resized the partition. Open the terminal emulator, and run this:

df -h /cache

That will tell you the partition size, how much space is used, and how much is free. What exactly do you see?
 
no space after f and h
My terminal seems to be super buggy lately. Having to reinstall and reboot to get it to work. :mad:
yesterday I kept getting "permission denied" messages on everything
today I am getting "not found" messages on everything. lol

you need the spaces...type it exactly as shown, well once you get it working again. Akaza will have to answer that one.

ahhh...ok...gotcha! :o

ok hear is what pops up:

File system- /dev/block/mtdblock5
size- 160m
used - 15.5m
available- 144.5m
use % mounted on - 10% cache
 
I'm not sure what's up with superuser and the terminal yet, but you definitely have enough space on /cache. Did you run a2sd as root? If you're having issues with running su in the terminal, maybe that's part of the problem. Oh, and good call on the spaces matt :). That happens a lot. It can be difficult copying down commands exactly as they're written, then trying to type them exactly in a terminal. I usually get around it by using chrome2phone, if it's a really long command.
 
ok...ran a2sd cachepart, then typed in "df -h /cache"
and here are the results:

size- 160m
used - 119m
available- 41m
use % mounted on - 74% /cache

results before running a2sd cachepart:

size- 160m
used - 15.5m
available- 144.5m
use % mounted on - 10% cache
 
That's exactly what is supposed to happen, and what it should look like :). You should now see free space from wherever you moved it from (more free space on the ext partition if that's where you moved it from or more free space on /data if that's where you moved it from). Keep in mind that a data wipe will not necessarily wipe dalvik-cache now, so it's very important that if you want to wipe dalvik cache, you specifically choose the option. The same goes for having it on the sdcard.
 
ok.. ran a2sd check, and I see that Dalvik Cache setting is now checked as "dalvik runs from /cache partition" :D
 
thanks guys!
you guys need to seriously get paid for everything you do to help out on here! :cool:
