Well, you are ahead of me. I would like to partitioned a SD card and format, so I could put ALL of my apps on the card. Still reading and the more I read, the more lost that I get. :-(

LOL don't worry you can learn from my mistake. Follow me around if you want. I plan to make lots of them *facepalm*

how much space did you put on your partition??? it is possible the partition worked because your phone is reading it as a ext partition instead of external storage... have you tried to flash darktremors a2sd yet... if not go ahead.. then look in titanium backup (or the a2sd gui) to verify....

I selected 1024ext and 128?? <-- cant remember that one lol. I have not tried darktremors yet and i cant for awhile, probably not even today at all. I'm going one step at a time on this. If its OK to go ahead then i will try the darktremors a2sd next time I get a chance to fiddle around.

THANKS!!!

That makes sense then... 1024 = one gig of your 2 gig sd card... the 128 is used as a linux swap partition... i have mine set to 0 though, from what I understand swap is unnecessary for phone use... did you partition your card with clockwork mod??? if so installing darktremors wont be any more difficult...

Yes i went to CWM and did the partition honestly i was confused so i figured what the heck i would split it in two.. the "128" honestly i had no idea what it was for so i just picked the # in the middle. Thanks bro as you can see I'm a wondering noob LOL..

Quick question anyone. I downloaded the link2sd for right now mainly cause I'm impatient lol. So anyways I move my apps to the 2nd partition Right???

I know dumb questions. please forgive me.

 

[76ford90lx]

Nevermind. I thought you picked which one. Apparently with the link2sd it puts them on your first partition. i moved what it would let me and the second one is still empty.
