[Q] how to use internal storage as SD card with CM7

Since flashing CM7 I have not been able to use internal storage as SD card (can't run camera or dropbox without a micro SD card inserted)
The internal storage appears to be located in the /emmc/ folder.
Also, I can see the storage on my computer only if I toggle mount/unmounted while plugged in.
External micro as cards work as expected but I would rather be able to use my internal storage like I used to.

I found this thread in the LG Optimus forum and copied the file vold.fstab into the system/etc folder, and now my internal storage is not visible at all, even in the emmc folder. would it be possible for someone to upload the stock CM7 one?
Thank you

thank you. I think I identified the problem though there is an option in cm7 settings that says use internal/external storage but it appears to be backwards for me (says its using internal storage but actually using external)

where did you locate these settings

[HELP] Bootloop Problem - Need guide on how to map my external sd card

I can't get out of this boot loop problem.
I'm 80% sure it's a hardware problem (Internal sd).
I've searched almost all threads with similar problems like:
Bootloop! & Can't mount SDCARD
and
Bootloop after flashing
but failed to find the answers.
But because of this thread, im having second thoughts.
[SOLVED]i9003 internal sd card unavailable
and
this post by anplugged
Maybe I could pull this out of that looping problem and probably will fix my I9003.
Now, does anyone can put a correct guide and procedure on how to map an extenal mmc?
This is what I followed:
1. Make partition using "parted" in adb shell. Is mmcblk0 refers to the external mmc?
2. Edit "vold.fstab". Is this a compulsory?
3. Modify /etc/fstab. How?
Please, I need you help. TIA
br,

Where are you guys....................
Experts?
Anybody?
......

Vold.fstab is in the /system/etc directory, I suppose it's compulsory.

Thanks for the reply.
If so, do i have to pull the vold.fstab from the device or just push the one that i have and already edited.

Please check if i'm on the right track. It's important for me to understand rather than just following the other tutorials or guide without understanding. TIA..
br,

AFAIK, you have to replace it or you cannot have any access to either sd card and not delete and copy. Maybe that will work through adb push though.

Okay. After pushing the vold.fstab to the device, the device is still in bootloop.
I think I didnt make it right(editing the vold.fstab)
This is where I edit the file. The one with color blue (change from 0 to 1) as per this post.
# internal sdcard
{
ums_path = /sys/devices/platform/usb_mass_storage/lun1/file
asec = enable
mbr_policy = overwrite
}
dev_mount sdcard1 /mnt/sdcard/external_sd 1 /devices/platform/mmci-omap-hs.1/mmc_host/mmc1
One thing I've notice, pc has a problem detecting the USB mass storage.
Any idea everyone?
br,

Move game data (obb) to SD

Hi!
I bought a microSD 32GB and want to install game which I before can't play because Optimus has only 8GB space.
I've got Jelly Cream Sandwich V3 with Shazo's Kernel, every data was installed on sdcard, another like Bard's Tale on __externalSD. I'm try to bind directory in Lucky Patcher, in Directory Binder, in GL2SD. Maybe is the way to standard install app data on this ExternalSD?
Or maybe someone try to bind files from Vice City/GTA 3/Asphalt 8, The Condiut?
