[Q] Creating ext2 partition on micro sd card

Hi,
I have a 16GB Micro SD card that I want to create a 1GB exts partition on.
I have the free versions of Paragon and Acronis, but it would seem I need the full version to create a partition on an SD card?
I therefore got minitools partition manager and I was able to create a partition, but it is unallocated and it's status is NONE.
The FAT32 partition is Primary and the unallocated one is logical.
If I click on this partition almost everything is grayed out so I cannot format to ext2.
Please help.
I am running this on a cheap card reader from ebay on Windows XP.

Ext2 obviously
If it helps the card has a 4 on it, so does that mean it's class 4?
I think I'm a bit dumb !!!
I'd resized the partition only, so it was simply unallocated.
Are there any free partition software downloads that allow me to create a partition please?
It is MiniTool Partition Wizard Home Edition from partitionwizard.com

I did, I think I used ROM Manager in the end.
It didn't work to begin with, I played with the Partition software above, then I went back to ROM Manager and it worked.

moving apps to sd-ext isnt as helpful as dalvik cache to sd-ext... i just left it at that.
to remove sd-ext using windows, open disk management and delete all the partitions and create a new single partition.

For remove I use USB adapter for an SD Card. Install on Windows Mini Tool Partition Wizard Home and deleting partition or create new partitions on the SD Card.
Or you can simply partition using ClockWorkMod Recovery....
Its easy and fast.....
Make sure you take a backup of your data before partitioning, cause it will probably get erased.....
try using free paragon partition manager. I used it to remove ext partition.

How To Format Sd Card From 4EXT Recovery Touch

Hi all, I have just changed my sd card on my Sensation Xe. But the new Sd card is already partitioned and i want to delete this partition. I have read that to delete partition I have to format it from the recovery but I don't know how can I do it.
Recovery: 4EXT Recovery Touch.
CHANGE TOPIC: I have solved the problem of this topic. Now i want to ask you another thing. If i go to partition sd card from recovery i have to select the space i want on my 1 partition (fat32) but, even if i have 16 gb on sdcard, my first partition can be only until 8 gb. Why? Then it ask me the space i want for the second and the third partition. What is the 3 partition?
Thanks.
Well this is what it says in the classic 4 EXT Recovery thread OP.
Full support for up to 2 sd-ext partitions + swap

So it should be another 2 sd-ext partition or a partition for Swap.
Personally I would just format it with my computer and a SD card adapter. I always do a low level format first them a Fat 32 format, but that is just me.
But why I can use more than 8 gb for fat32 partition?

delete partition and create new partition
can u describe how i can do that?
i think i have to do that in the TWRP ?
i'm now on: Advanced/Partition SD Card
i can change:
EXT Size: 512
and
Swap Size:32
and i can choose: EXT3 or EXT4
or I have to do it differently?
Ok thanks i got it
i connected my phone as mass storage on my computer
i used MiniTool Partition Wizard Home Edition 7.6 to delete the partition and create a new one.
Finish disconnect the phone from pc.
On my phone shows error that the SD Card cant be scanned and have to format
I format it and get 7.39 gb i thinks thats normal that i dont have exactly 8 gb

if cwm:
go to advanced, partition sdcard, set size to zero, partition....
it will automatically make it as the only partition, fat32.
if twrp,
advanced>partitionsdcard>set size to zero> partition.
again, automatically, sd-ext will be removed and your sdcard will be *unpartitioned*.

THANKS A LOT ! :good:
False
CWM doesn't have a zero MB partition size option.
u can try easeus partition manager also for interactive partitioning/nonparticipating

Either try getting it done through recovery or else use Partition software on PC like Minitool Partition Wizard, EaseUS Partition Manager etc.
