apps2sd reboot loop

hi everyone,
***i searched and searched but i couldnt find the answer***
i had apps2sd on a previous rom and i recently switched to the mytouch rom.
after i wiped and applied update, i get stuck at the boot loop. i know that this is caused by the apps2sd and i remember seeing a set of commands that erase it from the sd card but it was deep in a thread and i dont remember which thread it was.
can someone please help me ( and others) out by posting the commands that will get it past the boot loop?
i tried this in the recovery console but it didnt work:
mount data
ln -s /system/sd/app /data/app
Thanks guys!
also tried this but it didnt work:
mount data
rm /data/app
mkdir /data/app
im still stuck on boot loop
Code:
mount -o rw /dev/block/mmcblk0p2 /system/sd
cd /system/sd
rm -r *

cd /system/sd

"mount -o rw /dev/block/mmcblk0p2 /system/sd"

said what the hell and tried the rm command and i got permision denied on everyfile it tried to erase
easiest way would be to reformat your ext partition.
then wipe and reflash
other roms can leave junk in the ext partition that causes bootloops quite often. this is a very common problem and i always find a reformat, which takes like 30 seconds with gparted live cd, fixes it
is there a way to do it through the phone?
my micro sd adapter broke and im waiting for amazon to send my a new one

Script Making

Tell me what I'm doing wrong here. I'm trying to make a script that will remove some apps whenever I flash a new rom. Here's what I thought would work:
Code:
mount -o remount,rw /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system
cd /system/app
rm com.amazon*.apk
rm Mail.apk
rm Development.apk
rm LatinIME.apk
To use it I type:
Code:
$ su
# sh /sdcard/apps.sh
and it just fails at every line. Any help would be appreciated.
On the first line try
mount -o rw,remount -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system
or your could shortcut it by using
mount /system
Stupid question, but do you have the permissions set to allow root access?
I've done that a few times to realize what my "mistake" was.
well you could just make a script for your PC something along the lines of
Code:
@echo off
adb remount
adb shell rm /system/app/com.amazon*.apk
adb shell rm /system/app/Mail.apk
adb shell rm /system/app/Development.apk
adb shell rm /system/app/LatinIME.apk
adb shell reboot
and rename it to a .bat or .cmd file

Ok so I did that and the script appears to be working. I'll test it when Cyanogen release another update with amazon... Adding the -t yaffs2, what exactly did that do?
The -t is a trigger saying that your going to specify what type of filesystem your mounting, yaffs2 is the type of filesystem

how to delete welcome video and default pictures?

Hello-
Is it possible to delete the preloaded welcome video and pictures from the nook color?
thanks!
Figured this out, so here's the info:
The images, manual, whatnot are in:
/system/media/books
/system/media/pictures
/system/media/slideshow
/system/media/videos
/system/media/wallpapers
You need to mount /system as rw, so from cmd prompt:
adb shell
mount -o rw,remount -t ext2 /dev/block/mmcblk0p5 /system
cd /system/media/pictures
rm *
Repeat cd and rm for each folder.

[Q]: Read-only filesystem

Hi!
I have rooted my phone (LG Optimus 2X) and mistakenly deleted some files.
I have these files, and want to push them back using adb, put my problem is, that when i try to mount the system in read / write mode using "adb remount" i get this error: "remount faileded: Operation not permitted".
I can't figure out how to fix it, i can pull files etc.
I have also tried to use the adb shell, and copy the files from the internal sdcard, but i'm getting the same error.
Only read-mode.. :/
Anybody who can help, fixing this problem?
If you want to mount /system just write:
mount -o rw,remount -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system
Then you're good to go
