NOTE:
1. Must have a rooted phone
2. Must have two partitions on the sd card (fat32 for everything, and ext2 for "expanding" the phone's memory).
3. Must have Android SDK installed (so that adb will work)
Ok.. So I got sick of all the commands running back and forth. I found that I'm wiping my phone several times testing out new things and didn't want to continuously put in all these commands to get the apps to sd thing to work.
Therefore, I created a file to automatically do it for me!!! I just run this file with the usb connected to the phone, and let it run all the commands.
I've attached a file "tmp.zip". Download this file and extract it to your c:
The folder it extracts NEEDS to be at c:/tmp
After extracting, navigate to the folder and double click on "appsToSD1.bat". Follow the instructions and you'll be on your way.
I hope this helps!!!!

EXCELLENT!!! I have already set my apps to sd... but I always welcome alternatives. Good work. I can't wait to try it out some time.
Thanks!
looking at the bat, it looks just like the commands from that other thread. Any1 game to try and share if it it works =]?
Nice, I might finally try this when I get home today...
Anyone try this out yet?
Just tried it
Failure, after last reboot i am stuck at the flashing android loader.
I did verify i was all the stuff the bat file said to look for

Since ext2 is a linux partition I would use a Live Ubunut CD to partition the card. This is the safest bet.

If you have a good net connection it will download in 10-15 minutes. Worth the time knowing that method works
Also, having a Live CD is a good troubleshooting tool for future issues.

More than likely because you didn't have the partitions on SD correct. READ THE NOTE FIRST!
I think you're going to have to clear the phone. You might even need to re-install an update.

Nope, I'm not seeing a "/system/sd" partition on your phone.
Don't know how easy using LiveCD Ubuntu is... but there's no way it's easier than Paragon Partitioner...
I dl'ed it, Personal Trial version.
Inserted my G1 via USB.
Create partition.
Select sd card.
Choose size.
DONE!
That's it. Voila. Sd card partitioned into 2 parts.

I ended up having to use Ubuntu. I'm not sure why, I installed Paragon on my work computer (new, running Vista x64) and it couldn't create the partitions correctly... kept on giving me some error. I think it had something to do with mounting... So I thought maybe it's because I was on an x64. Took it home to my laptop running Windows XP and had the same problem. I finally got tired of it and got Ubuntu who worked like a charm

Yep, Ubuntu will work every time. Since EXT2 is a linux format, having Windows create it is a mixed bag. I tried creating windows partitions on my Mac awhile back and it was a disaster.
Link2SD is not working
I converted an ext2 partition with the OpenRecovery XT720 sd card tools to ext 4, but I guess something went wrong. I also created the link2sd folder in /sd-ext, but link2sd is not working. Here is my sdcard-info.txt:

Hmmm. I don't see anything that looks obviously wrong here. I'll take a look at the boot scripts. Did it work previously using ext2 on the same ROM? Can you describe any error messages?
Maybe I missed some information!? The folder /sd-ext/link2sd is still emty. After activating link2sd in Dexter's Froyo by creating the folder app and a reboot link2sd worked. Is this different in CM 6.3?

No, it should be the same. What error is Link2SD displaying?
Okay, now a noob question: Is the link2sd function integrated in CM 6.3 or do I have to download the link2sd app from the market? And where will I find the error message from link2sd?

Yes, you have to install the app from the market. The app will display the error message. All the ROM does is handle mounting /sd-ext/link2sd to /data/sdext2 (which the Link2SD app uses).

A brand-new Galaxy Nexus, rooted, installed many apps w.o. problems. (e.g. sshd, Total Commander, ConnectBot, OpenVPN, ...) Tried to install Midnight Commander as seen here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1243699&page=6
No success, so I tried from scratch, copied files into /system dir and subdirs. It works. But in some subdirs the mc has no read-permission, e.g. /system, /data... I'm wondering, able to listing contents of these directories directly from console. Also able to copy files into /system or /etc with F5.
Any Hints?
Thanks, Charmin.

Thread moved to Q&A due to it being a question. Would advise you to read forum rules and post in correct section.
Failure to comply with forum rules will result in an infraction and/or ban depending on severity of rule break.
Same problem on ICS (cm-9.0.0-RC1-maguro.zip)...
I do not have the solution but I may have a clue. When mc attempts to access /system, strace shows:
Code:
chdir("/system") = 0
getcwd("/system", 4096) = 8
stat64("/system", {st_mode=S_IFDIR|0755, st_size=4096, ...}) = 0
stat64("/system", {st_mode=S_IFDIR|0755, st_size=4096, ...}) = 0
stat64("/", {st_mode=S_IFDIR|0755, st_size=0, ...}) = 0
open("/system", O_RDONLY|O_NONBLOCK|O_DIRECTORY) = 3
fstat(3, 0xbe98d868) = -1 EOVERFLOW (Value too large for defined data type)
close(3) = 0
Hopefully someone will find that info to be helpful...

An additional data point...
I tried midnight commander on the standard AOSP ICS via the emulator that comes with the SDK (platform 4.1). No problem! Access to any directory (i.e. /system) is error free...
This issue appears to be specific to Cyanogenmod (at least with my version cm-9.0.0-RC1-maguro.zip).
Is the source code (w/ android specific configure options and patches) for this version of Midnight Commander available somewhere?
I decided to build my own version of Midnight Commander so I could fix this bug for myself. You can find it here (in n00b URL syntax):

Ghost Commander looks great and I'll probably use that too... It's great to have both!
The Ghost Commander is a GUI app that runs on your device's screen as a normal Android application does.
This version of Midnight Commander that I've made is a console app. It runs in a terminal. So, to use it on your device's screen, you would first need to start a "terminal emulator" application. But that's not where it really shines because (on a phone at least) it's very small and the default soft-keyboard does not have function keys, etc..
This version of Midnight Commander is ideal if you are using your home PC (with a full keyboard) and you SSH into your device. For example, if you are running DroidSSHd on your device and you use PuTTY from you home PC to connect. Now you're really cooking!
So they're both good (but different)...

A brand-new Galaxy Nexus, rooted, installed many apps w.o. problems. (e.g. sshd, Total Commander, ConnectBot, OpenVPN, ...) Tried to install Midnight Commander as seen here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1243699&page=6
No success, so I tried from scratch, copied files into /system dir and subdirs. It works. But in some subdirs the mc has no read-permission, e.g. /system, /data... I'm wondering, able to listing contents of these directories directly from console. Also able to copy files into /system or /etc with F5.
Any Hints?
Thanks, Charmin.

Same problem on ICS (cm-9.0.0-RC1-maguro.zip)...
I do not have the solution but I may have a clue. When mc attempts to access /system, strace shows:
Code:
chdir("/system") = 0
getcwd("/system", 4096) = 8
stat64("/system", {st_mode=S_IFDIR|0755, st_size=4096, ...}) = 0
stat64("/system", {st_mode=S_IFDIR|0755, st_size=4096, ...}) = 0
stat64("/", {st_mode=S_IFDIR|0755, st_size=0, ...}) = 0
open("/system", O_RDONLY|O_NONBLOCK|O_DIRECTORY) = 3
fstat(3, 0xbe98d868) = -1 EOVERFLOW (Value too large for defined data type)
close(3) = 0
Hopefully someone will find that info to be helpful...

Hello guys,
I've double checked MC and everything seems ok, on my phone it works (it has 16Gb internal memory from which about 10Gb are assigned to /storage/sdcard, and I added 16gb external SDCARD which it mounts under /storage/extSdCard).

The only question that now comes to mind is if you somehow formatted the the /mnt/sdcard with ext2/3 filesystem ? Or is it FAT32 single partition ?
Hello viulian,
thank your reply .
I think you are right - it depends on filesystem type (and it size also) .
Large /mnt/sdcard/external_sd (vfat) is listable,
but large ext4 partition /system and /data is NOT listable.

I have p3100 8GB and I saw that internal storage is only 2GB. is this normal? if not, what should I do?

It is 8GB total between all items stored. You have /data, /cache, /sdcard, /system, and then a couple other random items as well. The total of all of those should be ~8GB.

But isn't 2GB too low? Its only 2GB and I cant instal apps to sdcard.
sorry for my bad English.
I have about 3gb of storage not counting the space my apps take up.

Tab2lite beta 2
Storage lists my total space at 4.6gb.
Sent from my GT-P3113 using XDA Premium HD app
The memory layout on the Tab 2 is a strange bird. The 8GB is divided into two partitions of equal size, and you will always see the internal memory and virtual SDCard being of equal size. You really only have 4GB to actually install anything programwise. With Ice Cream Sandwich, you cannot move apps to the ExtSDCard because of Google's far-seeing "wisdom" that said that we would not ever need more than what they gave us in the Tab 2. There ARE some apps that will allow you to move some game files to the ExtSDCard like GL to SD(Root) and Directory Bind, but there really isn't a long term solution yet on how to move apps to the ExTSDCard consistently without need of special apps. I imagine that it may take a major ROM tweak that will allow this function. There is also a 1GB dedicated cache directory that needs to be cleaned ever so often otherwise Google Play will not allow you to install anything once the cache is filled. There are a number of utility apps available in the Play Store that will optimize memory and clear the cache...

So what should I do to get 4GB free space instead of 2GB ?

This is not right.
There are several partitions of the 8gb flash memory, not two. Not being able to move apps to an sd card is not an ICS issue but a modification made by Samsung. The cache never needs to be cleared, its size is 688mb not 1gb, and if you want to clear it (even though it offers no benefit whatsoever to do so) you can do it from the menus in ICS.

Do you have a terminal emulator app? adb? It's hard to fix your problem if we don't know more.

Yes I have terminal emulator app.
I have similar problem. I have p3110 16Gb and after installing Tab 2 lite beta 2 (I tested all other p3113 rom,stock and custom, and they all worked without any problems), memory went from 16GB to 8G. I can't find a way to revert this(installed the proper stock rom). One other strange thing is that i can't re-partition anymore using odin,it fails on that process. Any ideas?

I wonder if this will work without busybox but you should run
$ su
then
# fdisk -l /dev/block/mmcblk0
then
# df
also
# mount
and tell me what you see.
It would also be helpfull if you could go to the '/dev/block/platform/omap/omap_hsmmc.1/by-name/' directory and tell me what you see.
For the guy that flashed tab2lite, you should proabably pm the dev and ask him for an odin flashable partition table for the 16gb version.
This is what i get.

You have the 8gb model and a custom rom. How did you flash this? I heimdal or Odin? What ROM are you on?
Your /data partition is messed up.

We can close this threat. I solved this problem myself. Formated data and cache and now I have 4.56GB of space. THank you matt30 for your help!!!
LG Optimus 2x (P990), Stock ROM, Android 2.3.4, rooted, ROM Manager and CWM Recovery installed.
My phone seemed to be getting rather slow so I decided to clear the cache and the Dalvik cache, from the recovery menu, to see if it would speed up the phone a little. Both processes completed without errors and I rebooted the phone.
The phone now works faster and is completely normal except for one thing. I find that I cannot now download any apps from Google Play as I get an error 498. If I look at a DF listing in a terminal there is no /cache listed. If I look at the results of 'mount' in the terminal I cannot see a cache partition either.
I have tried clearing the cache 3 times now with no success. I have also tried Cache Fixer but that gives errors if I try to move the cache 'Cache has NOT been moved'. I assume that may be because there isn't a cache partition now. I also tried restoring the cache using a partial restore from a nandroid backup which completed successfully but hasn't cured the problem - I still don't seem to have a cache.
EDIT: I've just had a look at the partition using fdisk and this is what I see:
Disk /dev/block/mmcblk0p2: 4 heads, 16 sectors, 2048 cylinders
Nr AF Hd Sec Cyl Hd Sec Cyl Start Size ID
1 00 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 00
2 00 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 00
3 00 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 00
4 00 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 00
Doesn't look good!
FURTHER EDIT: That bit about fdisk above is wrong. I thought that I was looking at a device but it was a partition.
Using fdisk on the proper device I get:
Disk /dev/block/mmcblk0: 7996 MB, 7996440576 bytes
1 heads, 16 sectors/track, 976128 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 16 * 512 = 8192 bytes

So the cache partition is still there (/dev/block/mmcblk0p2) but it doesn't appear in the mount list:

If I try and unmount, mount or remount the cache partition I get 'Invalid argument'.
I have run a file system check on that partition and it shows 'clean'. So, to summarise, the cache partition is there, the file system is clean but it isn't being mounted and I can't mount it either. I'm baffled.
I would be really grateful for some suggestions.
I've made a correction and added some extra information under 'FURTHER EDIT' so I've bumped it.
I have the same problem on motorola defy (jordan)

Did you manage to solve it?

Sorry for the very late reply but I've only just seen your post.
Yes I did solve it. It was because the partition had been formatted ext4 which my current OS didn't recognise. It used ext3 so I reformatted it manually via a terminal and all was well.
