I'm using Revolutionary CWM Recovery 4.0.1.4 that came with the revolutionary.io root method...
I formatted and partitioned the sdcard using this recovery
I have 16gb card - 2048mb ext4 - 64mb linux-swap - and the rest fat32
everytime i goto wipe dalvik i get e:unknown volume for path [sd-ext]
everytime i go to nandroid backup it says no sd-ext found
.android_secure folder is present on the sdcard
i know i have sd-ext, why do i see this error?
I had the same problem and I was able to fix it by formatting the SDCARD and then creating new partition. If you do, make sure you backup your data first.

i thought that too... so i copied contents of the sdcard to the pc.... formatted and repartitioned the sdcard, and copied contents back...
still getting the error... i know 100% that i have a sd-ext partition...
i'm wondering if its a flaw or bug in the recovery.img im using, which is the revolutionary cwm 4.0.1.4 that came with the revolutionary.io root method
After talking with attn1 on irc #alpharev
he re-wrote the Revolutionary CWM Recovery 4.0.1.4 to support SD-EXT
so for anyone still having this issue, here is the recovery he fixed and gave me

This is really odd, i just updated Clockwork Recovery to 2.0.0.5, i then tried to flash to behnam's cyanongen mod 5.0.8-test7. I used Clockwork to download the rom + googleapps..ok good so far, once the download was complete i was offered to backup the existing rom and or wipe data...i chose simply to wipe. The phone then asked me to confirm the reboot, which i did, and it rebooted the phone but now brings up the black phone with a red triangle. If i press vol up + power i access the recovery menu but haven't attempted a flash because i don't know why i now don't have a properly functioning recovery? I seem to still have root access from within my currently installed rom too :S
Help lol?
I had exactly the same thing with the cyanogen rom and rom manager. If you go ahead and press volume up and power while in the red triangle screen, the recovery will carry on and work as normal. I've done it a few times now.

and if when you press those buttons the recovery doesn't automatically launch, click on apply update.zip, this is the recovery image

Hmmmm interesting...so re-applying the recovery update.zip will just fix it? Wonder what changed in clockwork to make this happen?

Correct, I'm not sure why it happens randomly, that is how you'd access the recovery image, the image is the update.zip on your SD card. So apply that and you're there
i'm using the latest recovery and i can't mount the sd card anymore with /moun sdcard it gives error /dev/block/mmcbl0 can't be mounted,
never the less when i start amonra recovery batch and then go back to connect with adb shell to the still running clockwork recovery it works to mount the sd card strange behaviour
excuse me for this noob question... but what is this Clockwork Recovery?

Do a search for it on this forum, or try searching rom manager in here. There are at least 4-5 threads on it. One of which is very big! Try searching for 'fake flash'

this is not an issue, it is a feature of the new clockwork
i have spoken to Koush and what this means is that you are not using Apps2sd so there is nothing to be backed up.
the error should therefore be ignored as it is not a problem
Erm, this sounds like a bug. Can you join IRC:
http://webchat.freenode.net/?channels=koush
Ask for me, I'll be available.
I'm using apps2sd so the ext partition is there and schould be backed up!
i reverted to 1.8.9.2 (i think) and i backs up my ext partition just fine !
i'll join irc later !
Thanks to Koush for the assistance, top man.
Seems that some how the 'command' directory and 'update.zip' were missing from my /cache/ :s
koush, really nice support, fixed the sd-ext not mounting and not backing up in nandriod bug, and the mount sdcard bug within an hour over irc perfect!
could you post the solution koush gave?
just update to the latest recovery image (2.0.1.0)
mine's only offering 2.0.0.9
i talked to koush as well, nice fellow!
scroll down in Rom manager to older images, there you ll find 2.0.1.0

Unfortunately still not working for me on the latest Recovery (2.0.1.0)
Tried to backup my sd-ext (since that's where my A2SD apps are) and got:
Code:
E:Can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p2
(Invalid argument)
Could not mount sd-ext, sd-ext backup may not be supported on this device. Skipping backup of sd-ext.
I think my partition is ext4 if that makes a difference.

in clockworkmod, im trying todo a backup and i get:
can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p1 (or /dev/block/mmcblk 1)
no such file or directory

i did the unrevoked3 flash method.
FYI: I can mount in usb mode as hard drive and load mp3s.

Error mounting SDCARD:!
Are you using setcpu? I had same message the other day when in clockwork. I had an idea to try to set speed back to stock and unchecked set on boot, rebooted in to clockwork and all was well. Not sure if the clockspeed and and set on boot has anything to do with it, but I had a feeling that it messed with backup/restore when writing/reading a custom speed specified to boot with. Anyway it worked for me on virtuous with 7.28 radio and kings bfs 5
Had the same issue... Formatted the SD card (using the phone, under settings/sd card) and it never happened again.

to follow this up, i was experiancing similar problems
like an idiot i ejected the SD card with the power on (bad idea) and had to format it
the card worked fine under my rom (miui) but when i booted into clockwork mod v4.something
i unmounted the SD card in the phone options and formatted it, after re mounting it the phone gave me a notification that the SD card was an unsupported format
so what i did was click that notification and format the card again
i booted into recovery and it worked, i hope this helps someone in the future

So why are you posting in a Forum devoted to the HTC Droid Incredible?
Can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk error
I received a replacement Dinc from Verizon under the extended warranty. My problem is that the new phone won't backup or restore under CWM. I get a notice that "E: Can't mount /dev/block/mmcblkp1p (or mmcblk)
My old phone was rooted with the 2.3.4 version 4.06 GB stock rooted ROM. I made a nandroid backup with CWM recovery 5.0.0.6. So far all is good. The replacement phone with amoled screen came with GB 2.3.4. (unrooted and s-on.) Following the directions in Droid Forums I downgraded to 2.2, rooted using unrevoked3, turned s-off with unrevoked forever and reinstalled 2.3.4 version 4.06. All files found from links of XDA. (THANKS to all for the great instructions and files.)
But now on the new phone the nandroid backup and recovery from CWM won't work as I get the above error. II read that the sd card needs to be reformatted but when I put it back in the old phone, CWM works well without the error. Any suggestions?

I would first try to format your sdcard fat32, but dont put any of the old files back on yet. Then with the blank sdcard inserted try to run a backup and see if it works. If not try reflashing cwm thru hboot. Also make sure you have superuser and busybox installed. mmcbkk0p1 is the data partition, see if you can manually mount it thru recovery in the mounts and storage menu.

Its mmcblk1p1 he said. That isn't the data partition . I think it is sdcard. I think an sdcard format will do the trick.

hi all, sorry for my bad english...
here's my problem:
i tried to root my htc desire with unrevoked3 but i did this at the 3rd try for some reason. root program said "it's ok, phone is rooted". then i've installed rom manager and tried to install cyanogenmod rom, but recovery said "can't mount misc" and i can't do anything now. i rooted it one more time and it doesen't help.
Phone version?
Bootloader information?
You guys always forget about the details.
Have you also tried to install ROM directly in clockworkmod recovery ?
download the ROM zip file, check md5 sum, copy to SD in FAT32 partition
reboot in recovery
Install from SD -> choose zip file
Do not use rom manager. It's a horrible software which causes many heavy system problems here. All operations you can do with rom manager can be done directly in recovery. Sometimes you have to partition your sd card with gparted, because this cannot be done in recovery, but gparted is not that difficult to use.
Conclusion: You do not have to use rom manager.
Referring to your problem, I subscribe with black3yed's post.

Yes it can be done, just not with CWM recovery.
Hello,
I wanted to try CM7 nightly.
I had rooted stock rom 2.29.405.5 with a2sd+ from this thread.
Before flashing cm7 nightly 225 I wiped data/factory reset and wiped cache partition.
Flashed rom and booted normaly.
After that I wanted to restore my nandroid backup..
I wiped cache and data/factory reset.
Then I got an error while restoring /sd-ext!
Tried again by doing the same and wiping dalvik cache.
When the process reached the point when it restores the sd-ext the progress bar got stuck.
(s-off and clockworkmod recovery (CM v.5)
After that I removed the battery and powered the device.
All my apps are not there. Not even the superuser app.
Please what can I do?
I'm having the same issue with my nexus one. any ideas?
What happens if you use advanced restore and restore the,sd ext on its own?
You may need to reformat your ext
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App
The recovery would freeze
After a lot of retries I gave up trying to restore it.
I came to the conclusion the sd got corrupted. (Transcend 8GB class 6)
After that a lot of "bad" things happened, such as couldn't mount sd card, had to reflash partition table and a randomly occured USB brick...hopefully with the help of a friend we(mostly he) managed to fix it..I am at a stock rooted rom with s-off now and want to buy a new sd card..
Is there any way to verify that my old microSD has really been corrupted?
I have continued (kind of) the thread here!
With more info and questions.
Thank you for your reply!
I have exact the same problem, but the disadvantage that I can not install any Rom as it freezes when installing. So I'm not able to start the phone as it sticks on "quietly brilliant" screen.
What I have:
- Amoled grooted
- S-OFF mit Alpharev CM7 r2
- HBoot 0.93.1000
- Recovery: CWM 5.0.2.6
- Last Rom: Runny Mede v3
What I tried:
- Restore Nandroid: Freezes on restoring SDEXT (after factory and dalvik wipe)
- Install ROM: Freezes at writing SDEXT or says that it finished but the bar sticks
- Format SD Card, deleted EXT4 partition and remade it with Gparted. Checked it with windows chkdsk and Gparted and it gave me no errors
- Rewrote the partition table to CM7 r2 with a PB99img.zip
- Made a EXT4 partition with CWM
- Changed the SD card with another one (always making a EXT4 partition and formatted in FAT32)
I don't know what else I should do. Please help restoring my Desire!
Could it be a issue of the CWM? As I can not go back to another one, because Fastboot flash doesn't work, I can not test it by myself!
What do you mean fastboot flash doesn't work? Tell me everything

In Fastboot menu I can choose only from Bootloader, Reboot, Reboot Bootloader and Power Down. I don't have anything else to choose from.

Thats not how fastboot works. Read the adb and fastboot faq in my signature (ignore all adb things, and start at "what is fastboot?")
oh ok, seen it. So I'm gonna try Android Flasher to flash recovery.
To sort out recorvery as source of the issues, which one should I flash? Which one is the most stable?
Personally I am a cwm 2.5.0.7 man.
Got it running again!
Flashed the CWM 5.0.2.0 and everything worked fine again.
It seems that the Clockwork mod 5.0.2.6.111007 of zyonee has a problem with SD-EXT (so it was on mine, don't know if it works on other devices too).
Hi,
I have problem...
I tried to install Cool3D RunnyMede v5 ROM,which needs EXT4, but I have made mistake and forgot to create ext4 partition and installed ROM - so it couldnt start...
After powering phone ON it stops at HTC logo - i need to pull out battery.
After that I can go to HBOOT and to recovery.
I tried to wipe cahce,factory reset -nothing hepled - it still stucks at htc logo
I would like to ask you,if it is posible to create ext4 partition in this state of phone- because i cant get to my SD card (windows dont recognize storage),and I cant power phone to home screen...
Is it posiible to fix this problem (to make phone working) or create EXT4 partition from CMW(I have Revolutionary CWM 4.0) or from computer (ADB or something,im not expert in this stuff, im just guide follow monkey)...
I appreciate your help,im desperate
Thank you

Go to Gparted site http://gparted.sourceforge.net/download.php Download and burn it to CD or DVD. You will need an SD card adapter, when Gparted is on CD boot PC from CD and re-partition your card. You will need to enter BIOS if PC dont already start from dik and set it has first boot.
Before partition remember Backup data if you can.
or you could use ext4 recovery from the development thread - flash via fastboot. plenty of guides for that. I suggest you avoid the touch recovery for now as its not too stable (too large - bad blocks could cause brick...)
Thank you,
I have solved the problem - I found in recovery something like mount storage, and then i could acces to SD card,and then i flasthed EXT4 recovery...
Throught ext4 recovery i created EXT4 partition (it fprmated my sd card).
But it didnt solved the problem, maybe it was ROM problem,because I installed then Insertcoin,and it worked...
But thanks for answers anyway...

did you use the correct version for your hboot - as in the cm7r2 version if you have that hboot or stock hboot version.... also I'd suggest an sdext partition of at least 1024 (i like 2048 personally but i have a 16gb class 6 sdcard) for all sense 3.0/3.5 ROMs
I suggest you go and look at the "requirements" of the ROM you were trying to install, and ensure you have done a full wipe, and do not restore anything until after a couple of boots...
