Hi there,
I have a Galaxy ACE with Stock KTM Rom , CWM5 , and rooted with CFRoot b83 (b84+b84fix does not work on my KTM rom...dont know why)
I partitioned my 4Gb SD with CWM: 512 for Ext , 0 for Swap and rest for Fat32
I have even tried to format with Mini Partition Tool: Fat32 Primary and EXT2 or EXT3 Primary (4kb cluster size)
I can mount /sd-ext on recovery , even format it, etc.
But.. I have many problems with **2SD scripts, and I think that I found the reason: SD-Ext is not mounted.
I have installed Terminal Emulator, and I get this:
# mount | grep sd-ext -> nothing happens (it should show information)
# df -> /sd-ext is not shown
What can I do??
I know that Link2sd app works with Fat32 + Fat32 partitioned cards, but I need sd-ext to work , so Link2Sd is not a solution for me.
THANKS A LOT!!
You should repartition your sd-ext with cwm...it will auto partition it into ext4...dta2sd works with that...since you are using cf-root...your have a tweaks manager right?try to enable auto start dta2sd at boot...for a sd card, the one for general storage should b in FAT32, sd-ext should be in ext4 (although certaim scripts can work with other formats, but this is working better and faster, so why not?)...Hope it helps...

I have tried to make the repartition with CWM , into EXT4, and I have enabled auto start dta2sd at boot ...
But sd-ext is still not there.
I think that CFRoot is not enabling init.d support on my stock Rom.
Thanks for your reply..
Any suggestion will be welcomed!!

try this software for partition SD Card.. use Ext2 or other on file system. MiniTool Partition Wizard Home Edition on the Web
search on CNET Download. maybe helpfully
you can search in youtube "Cách phân vùng ext2 thẻ nhớ" and follow it
or you install ClockworkMod recovery
chose Recovery => advanced => Partition SD card
if sdcard have
1G => 128mb
2G =>256mb
4g=>512mb
8g=>1G
and the partition 2 is swap
you can chose 128 or 256
reboot and check in pc
sr i can't post link ^^!

Yes,you can.After that you can use S2E or Link2SD to config SD-ext.I gess you flash New Experience rom 9.9.1,it already has S2E and very smooth.
it's strange:
I use last CWRM 6.0.2.7 for mini by dany
but when I partition SD
I get ext 3 partition
how to get an ext 4 partition?
thanks

thanks... I tried to use it before and it creates a right ext 4 partition, but the rom (lenio rom v4) does not recognize the partition
I tried to label the partition "sd-ext" or with no label
but in both modes it does not work
incredible... I did the ext4 by minitool but the a2sd on lenio v4 does not recognize the sd-ext
update:
created ext4 by minitool partition wizard, but it seems that phone can't recognize it, coz the rom does not see the partition
is there something to do to make the phone create/see ext4 partitions?
tried the last attempt, with another CWM (5.0.2.8 touch ext)
I partitioned the SD, choosing ext4, but when I control, it's ext3
why that???
Some possible problems,

maybe the CWM failed to format it with ext4 file system,
or the ROM you use failed to identify ext4 file system, some guys told me there are ROMs that don't support the ex4 yet, you may want to read your ROM specification,
or somehow the ROM need additional script to read ext4 file system properly,
recently I've tried more than 10 times partitioning my SD cards, but most of it failed in attempts,
it won't be mounted as second partition, therefore I can't use Link 2 SD properly,
My ROM is PAC 22.1.0
I've tried partition tools: Minitool, CWM 5, AParted (SDCARD Partiton Tool) app, checked the partition table with Partition Table app, trying to mount second partiton manually with Android Terminal Emulator (using "mount" command), success using CWM.
I've tried ext2, ext3, ext4 partitions, but success only with FAT32 file system,
I think in the process I've delete some media in /system partition, maybe it creates problem since Link 2 SD need to modify some files in /system partition to mount the second partition,
I tried with Lenio vQuattro, partitioning with minitool, the sd-ext was correctly partitioned as ext4, but the phone did not saw the sd-ext. The rom is done to use only ext4.
So I went back to the most recent cm 10.1 (with ext3 and int2ext+) because this is my only phone and I need it to phone
Better use mini tool partition wizard..
You can choose the type of part,like ext2 ext3 or ext4..

I asked this before, but I think no one understand me...
When I install a ROM for my X8 (stocke kernel) always skip the "SD-EXT format"(except in Ginger DX recovery) , , some ROM´s "auto-install" all my apps, but other doesnt recognize the SD-EXT partition... WHY this is happpening ?
maybe , according to its format, they don't have support for ext2, 3, or 4.
It might happen.
Using partition minitool from computer will ease transorming sd-ext into FAT32 or ext2,3,4.
Cheers,
I'm running CM 7.2 and recently installed S2E (used Rom Manager to partition the SD card with an ext partion 512M). I tried installing an app a few days later, and the phone would just reboot. The "Applications" checkbox in the S2E settings was grayed out. So I went into the settings, unchecked the option to mount the sd-ext partition as ext4 and rebooted.
That's where the real trouble began, the phone rebooted and all apps were missing, almost as if I had just installed a fresh copy of CM7.2 on the phone. So I have two questions?
1) Should I attempt to repair the ext partition on the SD card, or is this even the problem?
2) If 1 isn't the issue, is there a config file for S2E somewhere that I can change the flag to force the sd-ext partition to boot as ext4 again?
Thanks for any help on this!
Hi friends. I have an XZ. I have recently created a second partition(ext2) on my memory card using the minitool partition wizard.After that,I inserted the SD card on my phone and opened the link2sd app.It prompted me to select a partition. I selected the ext2 partition that i have created before.after selecting the partition,it prompted me to reboot the device.but after rebooting,my device goes into bootloop.So i have to flash a new rom.again i tried mounting the ext2 partition and again into went into a bootloop after rebooting.i dont know what is causing the problem. a little help would be appreciated.
My os:kitkat(4.4.4)
