Question about flashing a ROM on internal sd.

Ok, I need some help. I was going to flash [ROM]SKY-ICS 4.2F6-2.7 but when I was reading the instructions and it says
"-place base rom of your choice on external sd card." I do not have a external sd card. Can I flash it off the internal sd?

The ROM files will still be on there after i system wipe and factory data reset?

Yes... You will be fine.
Just do not format internal & you'll be ok.
Formatting system won't erase those files .

Having trouble flashing Superuser

Ok, so I unlocked the phone, flashed the new touch recovery. I put SU on the internal storage. I mount system and flash and it fails. Any help would be much appreciated.

No ideas?

You mount system? You don't need to mount anything manually from within recovery. Simply boot to recovery, flash SU, be done.
Any error message? That could help us help you!

You put the su zip in the internal memory? It belongs in the external memory, also known as USB storage or sdcard storage. From there, you can select install zip from SD card then, choose zip. No mounting required.

OK well I didn't know about it needing to be on the sdcard. But after trying 3 different recovery and 4 different superuser zips I got root now. All were on internal. But its a old version. And I cant get it to update through market. Gonna retry on the SD. Thanks for the help
Also, am I not supposed to flash anything from the internal storage? Or is that just for su?

I'm sorry, when I said internal storage, I didn't mean internal phone memory I ment the internal SD memory, or internal USB memory. Sorry for the confusion

Everything you want to flash goes on your sd card/usb memory

ohh.. thanks for clearing out, you got everyone confused. Things lost in translation haan
BTW no external memory card in Nexus S anyways... Its 16GB Memory partitioned into internal memory and sd card, 1GB : Remaining 13.5GB
Everything through recovery is done from SD-Card, and put in root of the card.

[Q] No access to ExtSD Card

Tried to do a backup with Titanium Backup Pro today and got a message that the External SD could not be accessed. Couldn't access it with Root Explorer either. Took the card out and connected to PC, could read/write to card and all my data was there. Put card back into phone and used the file manager in TWRP Recovery. Again no luck. Tried "Mount" in TWRP but when I tap "ExtSD" it won't put in a checkmark and it can't be selected. I have no idea what to try next. I'm rooted on 4.1.2. Stock, TWRP recovery. Any ideas on how to fix will be appreciated.

Shut down your phone and take your card out and insert it to your pc. Transfer all your files to your pc and then format the sd card. After that transfer your items back to your sd card and put back into your phone. Boot it up and you should be good to go.

The phone can't see the card so I can't format it with the phone. If I format it with the PC which format should I use. Fat32, NTFS ?
