Here you are
First back up your sd card data then partition sd card- use mini tool for that you can searh how to partition sd card on xda there is a simple guide for it. I made it using cwm but you can make only upto 256 mb partition for swapper using cwm. Short guide using mini tool( no limitations) use card reader, first delete partitions on sd card, create Ist partition primary fat32, 2nd one primary ext3(1 gb recommended its enough for all apps and 1gb+ is not tested) 3rd partition swap(1gb) then apply place sd in PLAY open link 2 sd select ext3 done reboot open swapper2 chage setting as you want click 'on' that's it.

Ok, here's the thing.
I was trying to install LeeDrOiD V3.0.7 rom for my Desire and I followed the instructions.
And there was this step: "Flash This EXT 3 Alignment patch prior to flashing the ROM"
I've done all steps and I was stuck in boot screen.
But the main problem is that my phone can't mount SD card.
Before all this (two months before), I was doing step by step "Noob Proofing Everything Desire Guide" and I was doing partition of SD card using Gparted.
So I don't know if I messed up my SD card or what?
I can easily read card on my computer, but not on phone.
Can anyone help me?
same..
I have same this problem.. gparted, Leedroid and then cant mount sd card..

Created swap partition and set it to 0 mb?
Which size has your ext3 partition?
I have 4GB SD card and when I used gparted i set 1GB for ext3.

HELP PLEASE:
Cant update or download new apps from market to SD card.
I can only download & update apps on internal storage and then move them to SD... But If I have app on SD I cannot update or install app.. I always get - Installation Unsuccessful
I am using Leedroid NOA2SD 2.4.1. Tried to format SD card, unmount and mount SD.. nothing helps.
Titanium Backup:
Internal: 23 MB free
SD card: 1.29 GB free
SD card (a2sd): 1.90 MB free
after flashing this fancy alignment.zip you must reboot recovery and then flash the rom.zip
try it now, if it doesnt work you must re-do your sdcard
this can be done with android, boot up into any rom and go to settings>storage>format SD card - and it will restore whole sd as FAT32 (you will lose ext3)
so you need either other android phone or other SD so you can flash any rom to your current phone.
there is also an windows aplication that can do it (restore whole SD as fat32) but i dont know its name (and it is not anything alike gparted which unfortunately cant do it)
I've used SD Formatter 3.0 and I succeded in formatting SD card.
My phone can now mount SD card again.
mac - disk utilities - repair disk - might work if its just corrupted
Helllpppp meee....
It is very easy to partition your memory card.
1st and most importantly, backup your whole memory card,this is because partitioning your memory card will format it at the same time.
2nd open rom manager scroll down to partition memory card and. Follow the prompts.

How can I take a look at the partitions of my SD card, their filesystem and their size? I moved some apps to the sd card but I have no idea if there is a dedicated ext partition or not.
Thanks!

normal sd card or when you buy a new one dosen't have any ext. partitions.
if u wish to do u can use cmw and from it choose advanced option and choose make ext. partition....
i had not done it pratically bt a friend of mine told me that after he had done ext. partition so no bad words for me when he put sd card in his lappie the win. 7 was showing the size of sd card excluding the amount of ext. partition done for e.g. if card was of 2 gb and done ext. part. of 1 gb then the size was shown in lappie 1 gb excluding the ext. part.
Right, I've always used CM7 apps2sd so I guess I don't have any ext partition.
What I'd like to know is: where are the apps moved to sd stored in my sd card? I mean, in what folder?
Thanks

Partitioning your SD card doesn't give you more internal memory

try partition your SD from clockworkmod to 1GB external 0M swap then go to play store and install link2sd.
partitioning SDcard give you virtual 2 SD's. 1 of them, 1GB ext3 partition can be used as internal memory with link2sd. just select all apps and click create link... you will get so much memory. i have installed more than 100apps.
do not need to return your sdcard
because，now 2G you can not see it，but still can use。you can link2sd or data2sd，very useful。

Well i have got a solution to this problem.
It can be solved by using link2sd. When we open link2sd it would let us select the 2nd sd partition type i.e. ext4 and mount scripts would be created then phone will reboot and we can see 2nd partition using root browser in data/sdext2 or something like this.
