I know this is a noob question, but I just got my Nexus today. If I have apps2sd enabled, where are my apps installing? what's the path?
I realized how big of a nexus noob I was after posting this.....I found it.

So, I am at JF 1.4.2. What are my options at this time to get the latest and greatest on my G1?
Also, can I partition the card using 'fdisk' and format in Linux and then use the card in my G1? I am getting a class6 16G card, so I want to put apps on there. Is apps2sd already included in some builds?
Please don't say search. I searched and my head almost exploded after looking the ginormantic threads.
If someone has a thread that provides summary or howto update from JF 1.4.2, kindly point me to that.
Really appreciate your help!

SEARCH! No, just kidding. Basically, take your pick of the available roms, make sure you have the correct SPL and newest radio flashed, then wipe and flash your rom of choice. Its that simple. As far as the apps to sd issue, most of the roms have their own thing going with that. My recommendation would be to check out either marcusmaximus' thread on the subject or grab lucidrem's app from the market to help out.
Other than that, good luck, dont brick your phone, and enjoy!
Oh god I wish i had jashu's search pictures. Use cyanogen's ROM. auto apps to sd. Incredibly fast. Stable. Awesome.
Start here. LINK

You can definitely partition the SD card using fdisk and linux--there's a walkthrough here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/archive/index.php/t-502095.html
I recommend using the cyanogen roms because they automatically handle the apps2SD for you and are fast and reliable. There are also several themes available if you are into that.
Thank you so much for your responses! I think the consensus seems to be cyanogen's rom. I think I am heading to cyanogen's ginormic thread and figure things out. Thanks again! I will come back if I need help...

there are thread saying...G1 SCREEN....BOOT SCREEN...but a blue screen after both of those?
Wow I feel as though people who don't want to help themselves shouldn't ask for and/or receive any help from anyone... why should we answer your question when it has been many times over? Please give one reason? You already have the fact that you posted a question in the wrong forum......
Q&A section is where you want to be!! That Help Me !!
is it an entire blue screen or is it the screen that has android with blue scrolling across it.
Did you reflash a rom after reformating your card?
Did you sacrifice kittens before flashing?

hahaha, yea I forgot that was the most important step.
Have the Devs gotten it to work? Because that's all that's missing from this.
Im running defconoi's Froyo build and it is pretty cool but A2SD would make it my Daily Driver
Read the original post... gives directions how to enable via terminal... Its usually a better idea to post questions in the original thread... BTW it was answered a few times in that thread too...

"Not a techie kinda guy" - so if anyone tells you, how are you going to understand what you've been told?
