You cant remove the partition with the help of CWM..
Using CWM will only format it..
Use minitool partition wizard to remove it..

ur sd-ext where the apk is being installed is being mounted as r/o..which does not allow u to install and so it reboots. it happened to me only twice and i did a restore to solve it..not sure wat caused it. also 1 one other person complained of having the same issue.

maybe something is wrong with your sd-ext partition, the apk are being installed there because of s2e.
edit; try another format ext2/ext3

If u use permanent cwm ur sd-ext partition wil b backed while taking a nandroid backup.
For link2sd make ext3 partition on ur sd card. I hope u kno hw to make partitions on sd card. If nt search on google.

Actually, there are many opinions about Ext partitions and which one is the best.
I'd personally suggest you read more about them yourself (ext2, ext3, ext4).
Ok.
I make sd-ext3 using cwm, but when I make backup the cwm can't find sd-ext ??
Why ??
are there any way that allow me to backup my sd-ext, and then restore if anything happened ?

Cannot Mount Ex3 Partition with CWM

I created an ex3 partition (1gb) using minitool partition wizard for using Link2SD application. But cwm cannot mount the new partition, so naturally Link2SD can't see the partition. I'm using Acecream rom 1.4.
What can i do?
CWM should not mount the second partition, Link2SD has to do that.

Format sd-ext from cwm recovery. It will format it in ext-3 format by default. Then try to get it detected in link2sd. If cwm can't format sd-ext, then try formatting sd-ext using minitool again. May be the first time partition was not created correctly. You may also try to format it in ext2 format as well and then test it.
CWM could not format the partition that i created with minitool. Because I tried re-create, shrink and reformat (also changing ext3 to ext2) but still same. As far as i understand CWM can't do format process because can't mount partition.
Link2SD should ask for creating mount scripts. Select "Ext3", then you will be asked for rebooting your phone, reboot.

Yes, Link2SD asked for mount and I selected ext 3, but it couldn't do that . It gave an error something like "unable to mount....".
I want to ask someting different. What happens if I don't create ext3 partition? Link2SD now can move the aplications on SD card. What is the benefit of creating Ext 3 partition?
MOVING to the SD card is only moving a part of the application.
LINKING to the SD card is moving the whole application (apk, dex, lib).
In Link2SD, click on menu, select more, recreate mount scripts, and select ext2.
If that doesn't work, try again and select another one.

I found the reason. We have to make primary (in minitool) the new partition. After that Link2SD automatically found the new partition.
Thank you alot again (I clicked the thanks button of course )

Make sure that the ext3 partition is a primary partition not a logical partition.

You can also create a second partition with CWM.

Removing Link2SD scripts

Need help people. Am using Stock Based ROM and till date used Link2SD for linking apps 2 sd card.
Now i want to try a different ROM which has cronmod script already installed. The OP suggested me to get rid of Link2Sd script first. Uninstalled Link2Sd and tried to flash ROM again. No Success.
Now can someone please tell me that mere uninstalling Link2sd app removes the script too? Or i need to do something else too?

Wipe your sd-ext partition via cwm (wipe data) and flash a new rom.. you can use your sd-ext partition flasing other scripts as INT2EXT, in my opinion the best sd-ext script

A flashable zip for removing the scripts.
Goto /system/etc/init.d & delete a file named 11link2sd.

That is not everything. This is what the zip does:
deletes /system/etc/install-recovery.sh
checks for /system/bin/debuggerd.bin, deletes /system/bin/debuggerd if debuggerd.bin exists, and renames the debuggerd.bin to debuggerd
deletes /system/etc/init.d/11link2sd
