I don't know how to remove the SDcard2 in vegan tab. I go in setting unmount SDcard and remove Micro SD card.I got a warning card remove everytime.Can someone show me how to unmount SDcard2 safely. I didn't see any option to unmount SDcard2 in setting.
Thank
One of the issues with the Vegan rom is that is does not properly identify the microSD (sdcard2) in settings. What its showing is the internal memory and thats what you are unmounting. I don't think you can properly unmount the microsd with vegan currently.

I believe I may be having same issue so i will explain. My phone after flashing to MIUI cannot jse a sd card I put in for what ever reason when I insert one it gets super hot and just tells me card is ready for removal with no way to mount. Before Rom Manager would allow me to use internal memory for roms or downloads from browser but after miui I cannot even find the internal memory. We just want a way to access it.
Just flashed miui on my G2x and an experiencing the same problem...
If you don't have an SD card and want to make the internal SD act as the external click here and flash the external secondary miui one.
I want to try the MOD you posted but can't download it to phone because of no sdcard problem.

What I did was restore to gingerbread or cm7. (basically a ROM that can discover the internal sd.) Then i connected it to my computer, put the mod and MIUI on my internal SD, wiped data, wiped cache, flashed miui, flashed the mod and bingo
I think I have a solution for you. You will need a file manager with a text editor built in like Root Explorer. Brows to /system/etc and open vold.fstab. This is the file that tells the OS where to mount the storage. Yours is most likely trying to mount the internal on the external sd which is default. All you have to do to change this is to change the vold.fstab from this:
Code:
# Internal SD card
dev_mount emmc /mnt/sdcard/_InternalSD 9 /devices/platform/tegra-sdhci.3/mmc_host/mmc2
# External SD card
dev_mount sdcard /mnt/sdcard auto /devices/platform/tegra-sdhci.2/mmc_host/mmc1
To this:
Code:
# Internal SD card
dev_mount emmc /mnt/sdcard 9 /devices/platform/tegra-sdhci.3/mmc_host/mmc2
# External SD card
dev_mount sdcard /mnt/sdcard/_ExternalSD auto /devices/platform/tegra-sdhci.2/mmc_host/mmc1
When I mount my phone, it gives me only my external SD card. But I want to mount my internet SD card. Because I want to flash cm9.
Anyone know how to mount internal SD?

MT4GS doesn't have any internal SD Card
Oh...Well My external SD card 1 was a FAT32 system. Couldnt mount on Clockworkmod, I used my SD card2 with FAT system and it worked(But ran out of space when backing up..). Tried using my SDcard1 and it couldnt create a path for nandroid. So basically my SDcard1 is corrupted :\
So recently my external sd card started to not remount when i put it back in. as per usual i unmount it before removing it, but when i try and mount it again, it freezes and fails to mount.
im running 10.1-20130127-NIGHTLY-n8013
and the external sd card is 32gb
attached is a screenshot of what happens when i press mount.
So I've been running stock 2.2.2 till yesterday. This phone has 8gb of total storage, with 2 partitions, one of 1.48gb, where it installs all apps etc (usually) and another of about 5.22gb which used to be treated as an 'sd card', even though it was internal storage. It would install all data to the second partition, and I could use that for files and apps etc freely.
I just flashed a JB rom last night, and so far as I can tell everything is working fine, the only issue I have is that its not recognizing my 2nd partition as an SD card, its regarding it as internal storage, and it wont allow apps and stuff to install there. The phone keep prompting me to 'insert an sd card'. I would like to be able to use my phone to install my apps (swiftkey etc), and use my apps (gallery etc). I cant save any files, screenshots or anything, and any app that utilizies data saved on memory keeps saying 'there is no sd card'.
It might be worth noting that I flashed the rom and gapps from the sd card, and then left it in while installing all my apps again and everything else I needed on my phone before removing it..
If anyone could help me get the second partition recognized as the sd card, that would be great. If any other info is needed I would be happy to oblige. Thank you.
IMO, you really should invest in an sd card, even a 2gb one. But I believe theres a file you can edit that will change the mount point. I'm not 100% sure if its the same for JB as GB.
Here's a quick link http://stackoverflow.com/questions/12271082/android-how-to-change-mount-points
or google up vold.fstab
Thanks!

Thanks for the reply! I figured it out eventually through experimenting.. I found this thread (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1593615) and used that info to find the file, the file itself contains info on all the parameters so it wasnt too hard to manipulate the text accordingly.. The file system on JB seems a bit strange though.
Theres a storage folder, which contains the two storage devices labelled sdcard0 and sdcard1. The mount points are done through storage.
But there is also a mnt folder, with both emmc and sdcard in it. In addition the root also has an emmc and sdcard folder in it. I think the folder names (in both the root and the mnt subfolder) are shortcuts, and are directed through the <label> you apply to the string in the vold.fstab file (following these parameters: Format: dev_mount <label> <mount_point> <part> <sysfs_path1...>). I think I swapped the label for the two partitions, switched the number after sdcard (though I think this is inconsequential). I left the partition numbers as is (so the external sd card was still auto, and the internal 'sd card' was partition 8), and I turned the internal storage into 'sd card'.
When I mount an external sd card though it shows up as internal storage. Is there a parameter to make that show up as 'external sd card'?
Good find and I'm glad you got things working for yourself!
Tell me how the system determines whether the SD card is mounted or not?
I want to mount the SD card manually and without fuss. To do this, I first unmount wherever it is mounted.
umount /storage/0123-4567
umount /mnt/runtime/full/0123-4567
etc
And then everything mounts fine with system namespace.
The problem is that if you unmount the sd card through the phone settings. And then mount it through the terminal, then the system and file managers do not see it. Nevertheless, it is possible to enter it manually through file managers.
The same happens in case of mount errors. The system stops seeing the memory card even if it is actually mounted. How can I tell the phone that it is mounted?
