alfs suport ext 2/3/4
check with a partition tool the sd,must be
Fat 32: primary(above 1024mb)
ext2/3/4: primary(max 1024mb)
and if you have swap: logical
For better results reformat your ext2 to ext3,backup your sd card first
I have a 16gb sd and 1024mb ext3 primary partition and it work
25 apps installed some of them in internal and my free internal space is 201 mbs
No need link2sd apk just move each app in settings/manage applications/to sd and automatically they moved to ext partition

Can't sent to ext(i have ext2)
I already test it

backup your sd card to a pc folder and repartition to fat32 primary and second primary ext3 512 or 1024mb
or you can also partition your sd via CWMrecovery
All actions it will format the card so BeCareful

Partition SD size

I'm using CM 7.2 and I finally decide to partition my sd card.
I wanna ask how big I should create those partitions. I have 16gb sd card class 2
fat 32 size?
ext3/4 size?
swap size?
and which order I should create?
thx in advice
You can create them from cwm simply without problems
sdext 1GB
swap 64MB
Order is important?
for example fat32 partition 0, ext3 partition 1 and swap partition 2?

No, go in cwm, advanced, partitions sdcard.
cwm will make all. try to go in cwm so can you see the options
if you want use a different software like minitool partition, you can creat 3 partitions all primary partitions:
1) sdcard in fat32
2) sdext in ext3 or ext4
3) swap
I've partitioned my sd to 512ext but never reach 200mb used..

16gb? so big memory for me
Ext 512mb and swap 64mb are enough for apps I thinks that...
Ext4 is better than Ext3, so if you can use gparted live (or minitools) to create the Ext4

hi,
u can keep 512-1 gb as ex3 partition. u can use cwm. its better and simple.
and hey a question? u r having 16 gb ? i tried with 8gb and my phone hanged like anything.. how u managee 16gb ??/
I do nothing to manage 16gb, all works fine. I only set cache sd to 2mb
I have partition my sd with cmw (1024 ext, 64mb swap). now I have 128mb freed in my rom.
thx to all!!!

you re welcome buddy
Read this about how to partition your sd-card
http://yagyagaire.blogspot.com/2011/09/how-to-partition-sd-card-and-install.html
Also, Since you have 16 GB sdcard memory, best sizes should be 1-2 GB sd-ext, remaining FAT32, no swap.

[Q] Ext4 Partition issues?

I want to install RunnymedeMod and it requires that I have a 1GB Ext4 partition. I have an 8GB SD Card...
I use Minitool Partition to create a 1GB Ext4. I apply the changes... I take the ROM zip file and put it on my SD card. When I go to the Recovery to install it, I go to chose the Zip file and it isn't there...
I boot my phone back up and open my SD card's file on my PC. When I look, the partition is no longer there and the ROM zip isn't on my SD anymore... it is getting frustrating.
Any helpful ideas?
The reason you can't see the 1GB partition is because Windows cannot read ext partitions. I suggest you install 4ext recovery, then create an ext2 partition and then upgrade it to ext3 and the lastly ext4. This is your best bet to make sure it's partitioned correctly and smoothly.

So I have touch 4Ext Recovery... when I want to create partitions it says First Ext and Second Ext and then Swap size.
I have an 8GB SD and I need a 1GB Ext4 partition.

First ext: 1gb, skip second ext and skip swap. Then upgrade to ext3 and lastly ext4.

[Q] Ext 4 and swap

What is the best way to partition my sd card (8 gb class 4)? I'm using the minicm7 and it has A2SD, i wonder what is the size of the swap and ext4?
512mb ext4 (primary)
128 mb swap

Okay. But like me I partition (you could pass the tutorial?). I seen by cmw of alfs v08a, is it safe?
Last doubt: I think 128 mb low, I can choose 256 mb or is it very risky?

No. Use partition tools software. Backup before format partition you sd card and use sd card reader. 256mb swap its safe but swap no need to that high.

I downloaded MiniTool Partion
What is the order to partition (ext4, swap, fat32)? And as an asset swap?
