Is it possible to install a2sd on polaris.
apps2sd is not necessary. when you flash android (to sd or nand) you can decide to put all data on an sd partition.

Format 1 Partition FAT32 in sdcard root path have /andboot
I explained how to install the following.
1. FLASH THE ANDROID OS LOADER TO NAND.
2. Copy this androidinstall.tar under a folder named andboot at the top level of your SD Card.
3. When you're done flashing, your device will boot.
4. to start the Android Installer.
5. I selected System on NAND, Data on SDCard.
prompt displayed "unmounted invalid data argrument"
you must create a ext3 data partition on your sd card so ad this to your how-to
0. create 2 partition on sd:
1 -> Fat32
2-> ext3
and then continue with your list...

Are you sure of that ?
this method doesn't work for me with last dzo kernel and incubus RLS5
doest ext3 has to be logical or primary ?
Yes, i'm sure, format your sd card with 2 primary partition. The former will contain the installation files (Fat32) the latter will br you data partition (ext3)

Hello
I seem to be having a little trouble in understanding how to manually partition my SD card for Android Apps2SD. I have a rooted HTC Desire and I am keen to try out Cyanogenmod, I have installed a ext partition through ROM Manager, but I would like a ext2 as well.
Please can someone explain which recovery image I should use to partition my SD Card with some instruction.
Thanks very much
You can use 'busybox mkfs.ext2' to format and 'busybox fdisk' to create partitions.
Instructions:
http://linux.die.net/man/8/fdisk
http://linux.die.net/man/8/mkfs.ext2
I don't want to install AmonRa to make an ext2 partition on my SD-Card. Can I make an ext2 Partition with my PC (e.g. using easeus partition manager)? Are there any specific things I should not forget?
Thx
"Use EXT3 Filesystem For The SD-EXT Partition,To Avoid Any Errors While Backup" Thiz is the suggestion from developer. But I dont know how to do this

After you create a partition, it needs to be formatted to be usable. If you created the partition on your SD card by putting it in your computer, you have to format it separately. You use your preferred software to format, and you must specify how you want the new partition formatted.
If you create a partition on your SD card through your phone's recovery (i.e., CWM), it will automatically format it. I think CWM uses ext4 by default.

Does CWM support external SD card formated with ext3 or ext4? I considered exFAT and NTFS but none seems to be supported by CWM.
CWM can read partitions which have been formatted ext2/3/4 in your computer. I'm not aware about exFAT, and I highly doubt any recovery would recognize NTFS.
I am using PhilZ Touch 5 Recovery
and 16gb class 10 memory card.
I created a 4 gb ext4 partition using minitool partition wizard and flashed a rom.
Working fine.
But again when i inserted my memory card in card reader and plugged in to my system , it is showing ext3 in minitool partition..
ext4 changed to ext3 automatically !!
Why did this happened??
Should i change my recovery to make it remain ext4 ??
Need help
