Hello !
Is it possible to use an ext3 partition which size is greater than 512 MB ? Thanks by advance.
Yes, but you can't create a ext3 bigger than 512 MByte with the ROM-Manager. Use AmonRA Recovery or Linux (gparted) to create a ext3 partition at the end of the SD (FAT32, ext3).
yes you can.....i currently have 1gb...and believe me you won't need any more than that even in 2 years....
i recommend you to use the gparted for formatting the sdcard
Hey guys I am using my sdcard from my G1 with an ext3 (maybe ext4) partition, a swap partition, and a fat32 partition. Should I format and just leave the fat32 partition? or should I just delete the swap partition? I figure I won't need it since the Vision has 512mb ram. Thank you.
you also don't need the ext since you have nearly 2gb of storage accessible to you.
format to just fat32 and you'll be golden
Does the format partition System Storage is fat32 or ext4?
If not ext4 how can i format it into ext4??
I have my 32gb card partitioned with 27G FAT32 (primary and first partition), 2G EXT4 (primary and second) and 32MB of swap (third). This used to work fine with my old EVO but the 2G is unrecognized in my e4gt and I've not seen a way to get it working. Moreover I don't understand how the 27GB and emmc are being used or referenced.
The /emmc shows up as only 1.23G (?) as does /sdcard. There is also an /sdcard1 with 4.47GB, where the hell these values are coming from I have no idea since they don't correspond to any of the partition values. Under settings/storage the1.97 internal storage, the 11.5GB og internal storage and 27GB FAT32 shows up. I can't figure out how they correspond to what's in /emmc, /sdcard and /sdcard1 and I have no idea where the 27GB FAT32 partition is supposed to be in the actual file system you can explore with root explorer, the 2GB partition doesn't show up under storage or under the file system at all.

Sounds like you are running cm9.. it doesn't support the ext4 partition on our device, as their is no need. Swap is also not supported. As far as confusion about the rest.. try a newer build..

Are there any Kernels out yet that enable EXT3 or EXT4. I need to be able to mount an EXT4 Partition on my SD to move Apps off system memory as its full, other than a kernel is there any other way to mount EXT4?
