Root How-to A2SD for Galaxy & Behold 2 Rom's

Hmm... Clearly I've done something wrong. I'm running Microhaxo's 1.6 OTA tweaked ROM (http://androidforums.com/behold-2-all-things-root/113897-behold-ii-ota-1-6-tweaked.html). I partitioned my SD card and have a linux-ext2 partition of ~500mb. I've got playlogo and playlogo_real showing up in system/bin. I also have app, app-private, and dalvik-cache folders in /system/sd. This would seem like a correct thing for successful a2sd.

I don't have any sort of a2sd application though (should I?), and when I install apps from the market they seem to get put in the phone's memory and not my SD card. When I go to settings/sd card & phone storage, my available space in the internal phone storage shows up as about 15 mb left. I installed a program from the market and my internal storage space went down to 12.5mb. I am getting low storage space warnings too.

Do we have to adb push all our apps onto the SD card manually, or should they install themselves automatically?
 
pretty sure when you install with A2SD working, its automatic. It was when I was using the BH_MAN roms. I tried pushing this in the bearsfan85 rom, and it didn't work. :( I'd like to get it working, but my knowledge base for android is limited compared to others on this forum.
 
Here is the dialog from the command line, what I type in and what the computer spits back out at me:

(me) adb push playlogo /system/bin
(computer) 55KB/s <5292 bytes in 0.093s>

(me) adb push playlogo_real /system/bin
(computer) 157KB/s <10072 bytes in 0.062s>

(me) adb shell
(computer) #

(me) chmod 0755 /system/bin/playlogo
(computer) chmod 0755 /system/bin/playlogo

(me) chmod 0755 /system/bin/playlogo_real
(computer) chmod 0755 /system/bin/playlogo_real

(me) exit

(me) adb reboot


Does that look normal to everyone?
 
I have BhMAN 1.6 stock, does sdparted work? Tried recovery mode , if that screen with " BhMAN !" is recovery mode ...
Else do i need to partition to use A2sd? Tried instructions from start of thread but apps still do not install in SD.
 
I need some help as well. I have abd all dandy, but when I try to run the chmod 0755, it tells me,

"chmod is not recognized..."

Any help?
 
i am posting this message again because i did it on a wrong thread. sorry.
anyway,
i am a newbie and i just finished flashing to BH_MAN_16_NoTwiz.
it says that it has a2sd. however, when i downloaded kakao talk and advanced task killer, those were downloaded on my phone memory.
do i need to change settings?
if so, how should i change it?
please explain it in detail because i don't know anything about android.
(i don't even know how to do adb things.)
thanks in advance.
