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.

Hello All,
As we all know there a bit slight issue as far as the internal memory of Xperia Arc is concernend.. when I googled on how can we use our SD card to actually increase the internal memory so that we need not move the apps explicitly to the SD card, I came to knw that we need to create a partition on our SD card in ext4 format.. But I dint get the exact way of doing it... so can anybody tell me how we can do it? And does it need to have a custom ROM installed? Does it work on stock ROM also? Please help.. Thanks..
Try Link2SD or AD2SDX.
I tried Link2SD, but my problem was that after creating the new partition in FAT32, the phone won't mount the SD card, and keeps acting as if the SD card removed. When I deleted the second partition, everything went back to normal but without adding to the internal memory (which is the whole point)
I must have done something wrong but can't figure it out.
The second partition is the one that has to be in ext4 format and as logical so your phone will not try to mount it for storage purposes..

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

Boot into cwm recovery click mounts and format sd

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。

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.

I've got a Samsung Galaxy tab sm t230 and it has a small 8 gig internal memory so I want to use a micro sd to expand this by using something like mount 2sd.
Ive created a fat 32 and ext4 partition on a micro sd card using aparted, also tried doing this with mini partition tool, and both are 8 gig.
However I can't seem to mount the ext4 partition in order to use it in the mount2sd app.
When in twrp it doenst see the partition.
Its created as primary and I am using a custom rom.
Any thoughts on this or how I can use my micro sd to expand the internal memory space?

Alright, I just got my Asus Zenfone 2E from Wal-mart about four days ago and I've already rooted it on day three, to fix some issues with SD Card write and read permissions.
But my biggest issue is the emulated sd card, I thought that "Move to SD" meant moving the app to External SD card not Internal SD card or the emulated storage.
My question is, can I use root apps to move them to the real SD card for more storage space or use some kind of partitioning mod or app to redo the space to my liking?.
Thanks if you help me out, and I'm coming from a Samsung Galaxy S2 (Straight Talk) Phone.

Link2SD is the one the you want.
Backup your SD card and make two partitions on it. One being the normal sd storage and one being the link to the second partition.

I'll do this after work tonight, does the second partition need to be a different File System like First one NTFS and the second Fat32?

Depends on the ROM you use. My Resurrection Remix on Zenfone 2 needs Fat32 on both partitions.
However make sure you look at Link2SD guides as some say you can use Ext 2, Ext 3, or Ext 4 for the second partition.

Using the stock ZenUI Rom from day one but I'll fire up EaseUs partition master on my laptop and see what I can use partition wise.

Sorry for double posting but I just ran into a issue, I made a 10 GB Fat32 second part on my 64 GB card and then the rest was the first part. But moving Facebook back to the internal storage cause a RR (Random Reboot) and my two test apps, Astro and Amazon Underground, had the grey android icon with an sd card icon, and tapping on the icon pops a toast message saying "App not installed"
I'm using the true stock ROM WW_12.16.5.118_20151204 firmware, rooted and Xposed on 5.0.1
Edit: just learned that I never installed busybox after installing the true stock Rom on my ZenFone 2e. I think that's why it failed to link sometimes.
