When formatted with EXT3, can i simply drop anddrag stuff into /sdcard ie folders for music and stuffs??
Thanks.
When you partition your card its with a fat32 partition and and ext2/3/4 partition. your ext partition will be used by your linux android platform for a2sd+ feature and wont be accessible to you when you connect your device as a drive.
However the fat32 partition will be visible to you and you can put all your stuff on it normally as you do.
hope this helps.

hi
looks like you want to do the same thing than me but ... as i learn at this time, there is no way to use ext4 partition on external sd card, just with some tools on internal sdcard.
android doesn't have script and code to mount under /mnt ext4 partitons just FAT32 !!!!!!!! great
Hi
After a long search it look like we can't have on external Sd card, NTFS or Ext4 files system.
The reason given for ext4 is " this file system is only for linux users" .. humm well and so 5 or 10% of users should ignore ?
but for NTFS i don't understand why we can't have choice to format external sd card with it ?
regards
I couldn't find it. If there isn't a way whats my next best option?
Bump?
To my knowledge, CM10 along with any AOSP rom typically requires your external sdcard to be formattted to Fat32. If your sdcard is 32gb to 2gb then you should
1) Place the sd card into a computer
2) copy the contents of the sdcard over to that computer
3) Right click the sd card and select format (format it to Fat32)
4) Once finished, copy the contents back to the sd card and you should be good to go.
Or are you referring to ext3 or ext4 partitions?
Is it possible to have F2FS on a microSD card and use it as external/portable storage when running Marshmallow / CM13 ?
I've tried and failed. I was able to use mkfs.f2fs to format my SD partition as f2fs, but Marshmallow then claimed the card was corrupt.
I edited the fstab in my initrd to use auto, or f2fs instead of vfat for the SD card but it made no difference.
I wish to do this because I believe that sync'ing long plex movies causes thousands of metadata writes to the file size and will soon wear out my SD card.
