Please guide me

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.

I've been using an HTC Desire for quite a while. I rooted it with Cyanogen a week back, and I didn't have to create and SD card partition at all to move all apps to SD. In fact, I didn't even know that an SD card partition is supposed to be created to move your apps to SD!
The day before yesterday I flashed Oxygen 2.0 to my phone, I had some bugs, so I reflashed it with Oxygen 2.0.1. Now, first thing, I can't find Move2SD enabler for moving apps in the market, secondly, I installed Link2SD on my phone, but it says I need to create a partition on my SD to move all apps to SD!
I'm on a Mac OS X 10.6. I need help on partitioning my SD!
Thanks in advance

If you download ROM Manager from the market, you can partition your SD card. Just keep in mind when you partition your SD card all of your files are deleted, so make a backup of SD card prior to partitioning, then restore after. Hope that helps.

Hi,
I was finally able to partition my 16GB Micro SD HC Class 4 SD Card using minitools.
FAT32 at the front, Primary, and EXT2 afterwards, logical.
I can drop files onto the FAT32 partition and flash the ROM in recovery, but when I reboot it can't find the card.
If I then change the card to my old 4GB Samsung SD it is fine.
When I partitioned the 4GB card using ROM Manager, which I couldn't do with the 16GB one, it created an EXT3 partition.
Is there anything I can do, or is it simply the card?
Cheers
As an update, I put the card in my wife's Blackberry this morning to see if that could see it and it said it wasn't formatted and did I want to? Yes I said.
I could now see it on my Desire and was able to partition it using ROM Manager.
Looking at it now, the second partition is ext3 and is primary, not logical.
I've no idea why this happened but I'm hoping it will all be fine when I flash a new ROM.
Hello All
I have been searching for an answer to this but cannot find it so decided to start a new thread. I am sorry if this is a repeat thread.
I have HTC Chacha (A810e). I have a 8gb sd card and i want to know a way to trick the OS into thinking that my SD card is the internal memory and my internal memory is the sd card. This way i would be able to install apps and updates without the issue of low memory. With this, all the android system files will be copied to the SD card as well.
I have successfully rooted my phone and installed the CWM recovery, eventhough it is s-on currently.
I request u all to kindly look into this matter and help me out please.
Hope to hear from you all soon. Thanks

but first you need to have a second ext partition on SD card

Try cronmod INT2EXT+ http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1716124 :good:
Note: works with a ext2/3 partition and the latest cm11 cwm
