It means that you don't have a partition in your sd card, so the recovery doesn't need to format this partition. It will not give you problems if you don't use roms that need an ext partition on the sd card.
If you need some other information, feel free to ask me..
Regards

Not really sure what the problem is here, but if you had an SD-EXT partition (for DarkTremor's A2SD) data wipe wipes the SD-EXT partition.

Try using Gparted partition manager.
or you could try format it from recovery, and assign 0 mb for ext partition, to see what will happen
don't forget to backup your sd card first

thanks guy.when i flashed RA-desire 1.7, it's all work best.but now i still cant flash sense Froyo(2.1 sense and AOSP no problem)

E: unknown volume for path [/sd-ext]

How do I fix this? I made an EXT partition of 256mb and I even tried formatting the sd card. Using a Patriot 16gb Micro sd Class 10 (don't know if that is relevant)
Also installed the recovery from fastboot. CWM 3.0.0.5

Where are you getting this error? Are you trying to set up Apps2ext? I think currently that only works on Enomther's ROM. If you aren't trying to run Apps2Ext, what is the EXT partition on your SD card for?

Apps2EXT is the same as Apps2SD right? If that's the case then yeah that's what I'm trying to do. I thought EXT Partition works with CM7? If not then guess I'll stop trying. I get that error in recovery when I wipe Dalvik Cache and when I try to mount SD-EXT Partition or when I try to format it.

Apps2sd and Apps2sd are two diffreant thing apps2sd stores apps on a FAT formatted sdcard (which is what Froyo uses as native apps2sd with apps that allow it and no widgets) , while apps2ext stores apps on a partition on your sd card formatted to EXT file system, which your phone mounts as part of its internal system so it will support widgets and apps that previously could only be supported on internal storage, so it considers it internal storage even though its on the sd card, so no they are not the same thing, right now the only rom that supports apps2ext is Enoms rom.

I think nowawdays Apps2SD is used to refer to the system built-in to Froyo for moving apps to the SD card (does not use ext file system or need special partitioning). This just works out of the box on any Vision ROM.
CM7 uses the ext4 filesystem for all of it's partitions, which is new (not sure if that's what you are talking about). Hadn't heard it supports Apps2Ext, but maybe?
If you aren't using Apps2Ext though, you should expect to see a warning about a missing sd-ext partition when doing that stuff in recovery, so you're okay.

[Q] Sd card problems

Hi guys, sorry for the newbie question but here I go. Just now I decided to flash a new ROM so I do what I normally did before I flash a new ROM (backup my sd card contents and do a nandroid backup). After I done those, I reformat my sd card using my laptop and place the ROM I wanted into the sd card. After I flash the ROM I get stuck in the HTC screen and my backup doesn't work but luckily I manage to revive my Desire. After that I notice that my previous partition that I made using gparted is gone and that's why the ROM didn't work at first. So, am I still able to recover my lost partition from my sd card or they are gone for good?
If you have a working nandroid backup, you can try to recreate your partitions first and restore then.
Windows laptop? The reformat using will have wiped your Ext partition. As said recreate fat32 and Ext using Gparted and restore nandroid (assuming under AmonRa or 4Ext recoveries you included sd-ext) or flash new Rom.

Looks like u didn't perform a full wipe... Via recovery...
Nd by full wipe I mean cleaning cache, dalvik cache, sd-ext, etc...
No need to format the sd card before flashing a new Rom....

I did the full wipe via recovery but I reformatted my sd card using my laptop and I think that's the problem since the process wipe out everything including the partitions I made before. And thanks for the answer, greatly appreciate

Yes, a windows laptop and unfortunately it has wiped my previous partition. I did manage to partition it again but I found out that my sd card size is reduced. So does the reformat process wipe out my old partition for good or I still can somehow recover back my lost partition?

Although I'm not an expert in partitioning but I can provide some info about this. Firstly, how you partition your sd card (gparted, rom manager or other methods)? And which partition you made (EXT3/4)?

The ext partition itself is gone, but if you re-partition using Gparted, copy your sd card backup from laptop onto sd card, then providing your nandroid included sd ext backup a restore should get you back to where you were.

[Q] ROM can't find partition on SD card

I have a little problem with my WFS. I partitioned the SD card to use Int2Ext4, but the ROM keeps saying that no SD card is present, even if it does use the EXT partition. I can mount the card in CWM, I can see it's content there.
I'm using the ROM from OWL Project (this thread), the last version of it.
I would post there, but I don't have the post count yet.
Any advice? I'm currently repartitioning my SD card and try again. I reflashed the ROM a couple of times, fixed permissions as well from CWM.
Did you format your partition on the SD card with EXT4? INT2EXT4 only supports the ext4 file system, not ext2 or ext3. I use the INT2EXTV2 on myl WFS with the OWL ROM for a few weeks and it works without problems so far.

Yes, I used Ext4. I tried flashing Int2Ext, Int2Ext+, Int2ExtV2+ and Int2Ext4+ from CWM, but I was always stuck on bootloop. The only way I made it work was by extracting the script file from Int2Ext4+ and placing it in /system/etc/init.d of the ROM zip. Flashed it, it worked, but then I got this problem )
I'm thinking that maybe the FAT32 partition was not formatted correctly. So I'm doing that now.
I repartitioned the SD card and now it worked correctly. Weird is, I did the same thing as before, so I'm not really sure why it wasn't working in the first time.

i format the sdcard, cache, dalvik, etc then flash the script (data2sd or int2ext or int2ext+ or watever) then goto advanced then select partition sd card, select 512 MB and 0 MB for linux swap space. DONE, hope solves it for you
I have too WFS with OWL project and i dont have any problem with this
Go to recovery menu and here create partition (befor it backup sd card)
Then go to mount and storage menu > mount usb storage >connect usb cable > give cronomod on sd
Then go to install zip from sd card and instal cronomod INT2EXT+
And have more memory
After instal cronomod dont stres android start is first longer but only first then normal speed
Thanks for the answers. I did say I fixed it already by repartitioning the card. Probably I didn't format it right.
