No need to, get a microsd card and use that.

I'm not quite sure I'm following you.
I thought partitioning the sdcard only effects the /data and /sdcard partitions.
Still don't understand what your real problem is.

If you did in fact get CWR reinstalled, you should be able to connect it to your PC, go to Mounts and Storage, and mount USB Mass Storage. That should allow you to copy your ROM image over to the device.

You can use ADB.
"adb push FILENAMEHERE /sdcard"
Thank you for this. You helped me big time.

to 2 partitions: EXT3 -1GB and FAT32 - 7GB.
(SD card of 8 GB)
now, my HTC Desire doesnt upload and stuck on the screen of my rom.
i tried to upload it with no sd card ad it stuck on the HTC screen.
i cant format the sd card by the recovery.
HELP!!
have you tried using super wipe?
it should fix the partitions and if not that have you tried putting it into a computer and formatting it there?
http://www.mediafire.com/?rx2jhzabvlca5ae (Superwipe)
instructions here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=9126707&postcount=1
thnx for the fast commet.
but how can i upload this zip into the sd-card?
in recovery mode usb toggle drop it in the sd and flash....
follow the instructions though
or hook it up to the laptop like the normal and copy and paste either one
but i cant load files into the sd card by the computer..
it pluged it to the computer, but its only charge - i cant load files on the sd.
is that with or without an sd adapter?
does your sd show up?
have you tried to repair your sd by recovery...i think its under partition
because i had that problem once...well without the getting stuck screen...what about your nandroids though?

do you have an sdcard reader so you can try useing the card on the computer without the phone if not try taking the card out then going into recovery putting the card back in and then go into recovery again and try to format that worked once for me
ok have you tried formatting on the computer instead of the memory card?
also a friend of mine should be coming on to help in a lil but try to format on the computer...
if not turn off then take out sd card and try again
i've no sdcard reader, ill buy it tomorrow.
ive tried to format sd card in the recovery with no sd card, and than with sd card and it didnt work.
theres another way?
thnx very much to both of you!
hopefully that works man
thnx very much!
theres no another way to format it? by adb or something?
but how can i use adb? when i tried to install the Desire's Drivers its not working.

yes you should buy a sd card.
becoz it will help you to recover your tablet as well as you will need it in future to backup Rom through cwm. (as backing up the rom on phone storage would eat a lot of phone memory)

Went to reboot and reboot the tablet "fixing" root, What I'm thinking happend is I've lost root access while in recovery mode, Hopefully that's not the case. Any help or answers to why my sd card was not mounting correctly or if I did anything wrong would greatly appreciated, Thanks

Hi thanks for your reply..
I already tried it with nĂ´ success....
More details please. What version of TWRP? MicroSD card or full size card in the dock? What's the filesystem on the card? What exactly did you "try with no success"?

Hi, yes you're right, more details:
I'm on TWRP 2.6.3.1
Zip files was on micro SD card formatted in NTFS.
And what I tried with no success is to find teh file on sd card location.
So I test FAT? On SD Card?

That TWRP version is very old... but should be good enough for wiping.
How did you try to find the file "on sd card location"? Using "Select storage?" Or did you mount using the mount page? In which directory did you look? external_sd or whatever it's called?

In TWRP I choosed "Install" option and look for .zip files I copied. I looked in folder SDCARD and EXTERNAL_SDCARD located at root and I found nothing.
I didn't use the "mount" option.

Which folder did you put them into on the card?
My guess is that they are in that folder
Which rom.zip files btw?
Well... I try to developp a little bit more to get some help.
I installed in my micro SD formatted in EX FAT format and in the SD card formatted in FAT32 format the two zip files dowloaded here:
Download CM11.0
Download GAPPS
They are installed at the root of both cards, there is no other files or folder in it.
I start in TWRP and then click install icon and look for these files everywhere and found nothing.
When I cick to mount icon, I cannot mount the micro SD or the SD cards.
Could you help me?
Is it possible to install another version of TWRP if the system does'nt start anymore?

when you enter twrp you should press on install, then there is a tab that says choose storage press on that and choose sd card, then carry on as you have been doing. twrp doesn't automatically show things on your micro sd card
