Root Ram swap Rundown

just looking for a walk trhough on the sd-pass vm thingy

used this guide > http://androidforums.com/galaxy-pre...od-rooting-prevail-dummies-written-dummy.html

This is the option in question > http://androidforums.com/galaxy-prevail-all-things-root/538891-virtual-memory.html

i read The thread over, found it works or so, but couldnt figure out how it works exactly. Said something about its optinal to partition the sd card to use as virtual ram, as a second partion ( phone partition, Ram partition, storage partition) i have a 32 gb card in this. using 4 gigs internal memory with internal disabled as guide said. My question is how to set up the Vram option and such. A simple walktrhough. Would love to stick 2 gigs of the card exclusive to Vram. Thanks in advance. =)
 
not to leave you hangin, but very tired tonight. i used the kouma app to make 4 partitions on the card, fat/ext4/ext4/swap, (will wipe all data and stuff on sd card) (need to always make a backup before doing any changes) and then in the kouma mod / settings, point the swap to that location. making it huge will not really benefit in any way. keep asking ?'S and me or others will help. sorry gotta go to bed.
 
its alright, im new to this, but in no hurry either. Just wondering if id have to redo phone as well to make the partiotns since a lot of its running off the card, though takes liek 10 minutes so no biggie. =). just looking for an explanantion of whats going on here. Just new to this.
