What is the fix for the sd card issue currently present in CM7 for the samsung infuse 4g

Not an issue. If you'd read the changelog, you'd see that the mount points for internal and external sd cards changed. You will need to specify where your SD card is located in your apps. I'm not aware of any other problem with SD cards not working.

What directories on the filesystem denote the onboard flash memory versus an external (8gb) sd card i've plugged into the back? Isn't the internal flash labeled as a sd card as well as my removavle sd card? I googled it a bit but had no luck.

The external SD card shows up as a sub-directory named "sd" under the internal SD card if you use the My Files app.
/sdcard is internal
/sdcard/sd is external (your card)

i have my 16gb class 4 micro sd but its reading one as an sd (this imaginary one) and my actual memory card as an EMMC. how is this possible and what could fix it? i tried wiping and reflashing and im on the latest cyan nightly.
The phone has two sd cards, the internal and the external. The internal card also has 16 gb worth of memory, the same as your external card.

Sorry.....not feasable.
Okay so its using my SD card as the emmc but the emmc as the SD card, I want to be able to use my SD card and not the emmc.

You already got your answer.
Once again, sorry......but not always a happy ending.
Why does my 16gb sd card only show to be 6or so gb? I know its partitioned but where is all of the other space?

Just a question. Are you looking at the sdcard OR sdcard_external sdcard in your file explorer???

sd card. in linda file manager
Reformat it. Either it is messed up and there is unused space not accounted for, or it is a bogus card and not really 16gb (many China cards are fakes).
What you are seeing is the internal SD card that came with the phone, it's non removable and show up as SD. The 16gb card you put in is listed as external like mhsamma said.
I just received my 32gb SD card today and placed it into my GS3. In looking at my file explorer app I noticed I have an 'sdcard' and an 'extmount' or something like that. So, how did I have an sdcard from folder w/o previously having an sdcard installed? Also, do I need to do anything to get that info off my device? I'm not rooted if that helps.
Thanks!

SD card is your internal memory. Ext-sd card is your external micro SD card. Different phones and different roms have their own ways of labeling these. It's normal and correct.
Okay, so I am just tired of the confusion in my head here.
I'm not a noob with rooting or anything of the sort, but I am not used to a phone with an internal SD card and an external SD card.
I am downloading a ROM to flash to my Galaxy S3 and it saves to the SD card... does that mean that it is saving to the phones memory and not the actual SD card I put into it?
There is an SD Card and an external SD card.
Which one is which? Haha.
And if I am right, like I think I am... the external SD card is the actual SD card I put into it and the SD Card is the phones internal memory.
How can I download from the internet and have it save onto the external SD?
AND...
When backing up a ROM before flashing a new one, do you recommend that I back up to SD card or external SD card?
And do you recommend I flash a ROM from the SD card or from the external SD card?
It seems that IF my external SD card somehow decided to corrupt while I was running off of a ROM that was installed via external SD card, that it wouldn't be able to boot after it corrupted.
Am I correct on all of this?
Sorry. Your answers are more than appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
I have mine setup to download the roms, pictures, media or backups to the external sd card. In cwm I save a backup to both internal and external for the extra security. I just use external for everything because I have a 32gb sd card that has everything. The internal memory is just used for system stuff.

Perfect. That's absolutely everything I needed to know. I guess no matter what you download from the browser, it will download to the internal memory... but you can manually move it to the external SD with Root Browser.
Thank you man.

Go into the advanced settings option on your Browser and it gives you the option to have things downloaded to memory card or internal. Just change that to memory card and it will do it for you.
