It didn't restarted again means there is some problem in installing. Please read this for more info and make sure you get the exact result as mentioned there.
Few things to keep in mind...
1. [format, optional but recommended] and mount sd-ext at boot
run mount | grep sd-ext command in terminal for it.
Make sure you get this result
/dev/block/mmcblk0p2 on /sd-ext type ext3 (rw,noatime,nodiratime,barrier=1,nodelalloc,data=ordered)
If not format or repartition your sd-ext and try again.
2. mount /data and /system on CWM recovery

Well you might not get the same like yagya did : /dev/block/mmcblk0p2 on /sd-ext type ext3 (rw,noatime,nodiratime,barrier=1,nodelalloc,data=ordered) .
The ext3 for you could be a ext4 so don't be afraid or shocked if you get other filesystem

Ok..then I will format my extra partition and try it again..and the ext partition must be formatted in recovery right? Or any specific mthd i should follow to format it...?

But, doesn't CWM recovery creates ext3 partition by default and it doesn't even provides the flexibility to change it to ext4.... unless you manually do it in other partition manger

no need to mount sd-ext, only need to mount system and data when flashing dtapps2sd, and try a2sdgui to confirm the script is working or not.

Ya its working perfectly..don't no why it didn't restart....but when tried a2sd gui and moved the apps worked perfectly...thank you all for responding...

android see its intalled in the phone memory, but technically it resides in your sd-ext.

Ya it can install the apps to sd ext automatically once you install the scripts...download dt a2sd gui from market and select dalvik cache on sd ext..that's it all your apps will be installed on the partition that you have created...

hey guys if you get following error..
"it was necessary to remove it when upgrading to cwm 3.0 gb based recovery,please switch to edify scripting (updater-script and update binary) to create working update zip package.
Installation aborted"...
i think the above error will appear if you are not using right version...
then try to download it from the following link..
http://api.viglink.com/api/click?fo...m/CJJ606UMY2&jsonp=vglnk_jsonp_13183165556861
it will work perfectly(for me it did)..

the new version cannot install in our mini
i got the same error like above
installed the beta04 version only FYI

If you are still having problem with Darktremor A2SD Script and are fed up use this alternative method to move app to sd-ext....

U have to partite your sd card before u run Link2Sd because link2sd doesnt create it,recommnd you to use Minitool Partition Wizard,very easy to use.

Try creating mount script in different format with link2sd. Ext2, ext3, fat32 one will work.

Try manually editing the mount script.
I don't really remember where the link2sd mount script was created for stock roms without /init.d i think it was in a file called init.d at the root of the phone or system/ or system/etc.
Look it up, open it as text, locate the link2sd mount script.
The part where it says 'mount -t ext3 -o rw /dev/block' change 'ext3' to 'ext4' in all lines required, reboot. Check link2sd again to see if it worked.
Otherwise, enable the system/etc/init.d address by flashing cf-root or flash a custom rom.

Are you sure about having a kernel with init.d support? Without it, script can't be mounted.

Link2sd doesn't need /init.d, only root and partitioned sd to work.

You mean this is some kind of external storage, which the system recognize like internal memory.

Ok, I've created the partitions in CWM, flashed my rom again with factory reset, vie Settings -> Performance -> Memory managmet -> A2SD I set ti to A2SD, gave the system root access, rebooted the phone and the sd-ext partiton is not mounted. I've installed the link2sd app, and choose ext3 partition, which is set by CWM, and the app say
Can't mount: Invalid Argument
Your system maybe not supporting ext3 or somthing like that.
So how to mount the damn sd-ext partitions.
P.S. I've tried via terminla with df | grep sdext3 no luck.

Or ext4, maybe there is issue with ext3 partitions and this rom. I've read an article that said that, ext4 partitions are not well supported, ext2, ext3 are supported with most of the roms
Edit: Now I saw that after reboot, A2SD is set back to none. Maybe I am having the superuser issue. I've flashed the fix, and will try again.

then try ext2

As I know CWM (in ics and jb kernels) creates ext4, so choose ext4 in link2sd and it should work fine.

Well, let's start!
You should be root and you should have CWM 5.0.2.6 Fixed flashed
Code:
1. You'll need a coustom rom or a stock with a custom kernel (to get init.d support folder)
2. Your sdcard should be partitioned, use partition magictools to do it.
3. When you'll get It ready, download int2script in the link I posted avobe
4. Boot into recovery
5. Mount and system >>> mount /system
5. Mount and system >>> mount /data
6. Mount and system >>> mount /sd-ext
7. Mount and system >>> format sd-ext
8. Go back and install the zip
9. Reboot
10. Done!
BE CAREFUL FORMATING THE SD-EXT AND NOT YOUR SD CARD!!!

Problem with installing cronmod int2ext

Hello,
I am a noob with a little experience in using custom roms on a HTC Wildfire S. My WFS is broken en since today iam a ace user. I have rooted the SGA and im using CWM recovery and installed the CM9 TW-rom from Sky-walker. GREAT ROM by the way. I want to use Int2ext cronmod script but i cant get it working. Ive already tried different things. With the WFS i always used it with a lot of different roms and had never any problems.
When installing i have followed the instructions of croniccorey.
I have format my sd-card and created a partition using CWM
Also tried it with SpaceCakers SGS and AOSP GB.
And already mounted system and data.
Does anybody have suggestions what to do?
Thanks!

Try to put it in init.d folder and set the permissions manually using a file browser, then reboot your device

Apps are not installing after Int2Ext+
Hi,
I was using Apocalypse ROM with CronMod Int2Ext+ (Ext2 partition on SD) and everything was working fine. Recently, I downloaded a new ROM - The Ultimatum and installed Int2Ext+. It installed correctly, however I could not install many apps after that. Downloading from market would give an error. This problem is happening for only those several set of apps.
Can someone pls guide me as to what the problem might be. I'm kind of new here.

I tried the above with link2sd and darktremor a2sd as well, but all were giving the same problem. Before installing any app2sd script the applications were installing correctly. Only after installing the script they stopped working. Is there some script on The Ultimatum ROM which is clashing with the above app2sd scripts?
I know I should post this on the ROM page, however I do not have the priviledges.

AFAIK The Ultimatum rom has already an int2ext script it might be the problem (swap all kernel) so follow he steps to install it correctly, you only need to mount /sd-ext and format this partition before flahs the rom to clean your sd-ext partition.
If you select fire kernel then you'll need int2ext script
1. download it and put it in sdcard's root
2. boot into cwm
3. mount /system /data and /sd-ext
4. format /sd-ext
5. flash the script
6. enjoy
