Next time do your homework!!

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

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 just have a question. Is it safe to partition my sd card in clockwork mod recovery coz I have clockwork mod 5.0.2.6 and in the advanced there is an option "Partition SD Card" and if u select it there at several amounts like 246m, 400m, 1026m, 2046m. So would it work if I do it in my clockword mod recovery.
Yes it works. Creates ext3. Backup sd contents first then copy back after.

Hi Pj_Singh
Is there any particular reason you want to create ext4 partition only? I mean Galaxy Ace doesn't have very great processor and ext4 is slower than ext2. Take a look at this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=800353

Despite the fact that ext4 is slower, it is required for most of the newest rom's/kernels to work. And the ext4 is "slightly" slower, means you wont see the difference, at least not when using a phone.
i made a partition to my 8GB sd-card and now its 4 GB can i undo it and restore my data ???? plz help
Plug the sdcard to your system and use the "Gparted" or "Mini partition tool".. Make sure you backup the sdcard data first..

thanks but that's the problem i cant find my data. when i made the partition the size of sd-card became 4GB and the data was gone !!!! i installed mini tool partition but i didn't know how to delet partition
You may be able to shrink the partition using the partition wizard. I've been lucky, and also unlucky. If you try it, don't shrink the partition below the amount of data u already have on it. For example, if you have 150 megs of data, shrink the partition down to 200 megs. Still make a back up just in case. Good luck.

Plug out your SDCard and connect it to your PC and now Format it (Not Quick Format) and then the partition will be gone and you have to make a new partition!!!

And that the backup my not be supported by my device. The information went very quickly so I could not get the info exactly.

1. Your backup = ALL your current rom data
2. Umm... I've never had a problem using CMW :S
3. Sd-ext IS NOT sdcard, so no problem if you haven't got sd-ext partition the script always finish telling you that you haven't got a sd-ext and skipping automatically this step , that's all. No problem at all
Hello
Before I did the clockworkmod, I partitioned my SD card into two FAT32 partitions. One was for my data and a smaller partition was to be in preparation of learning how to transfer all my apps to the SD card.
I was worried that partitioning the SD card had caused complications.

What did you use to do partitions?CWM?
I use minipartition tools (a windows free tool) and is to easy
Now you can use Link2sd e.g.
If I were you I'd create an ext4 (as sd-ext partition) instead of create 2 Fat32. Because ext4 can be used with int2ext scripts too
If you want you can read this q&a thread about link2sd/int2ext to get more useful info

So this method works for sure? On the Ace is possible to make only a 512mb ext4 partition to use it with int2ext, right? Because every 500mb partition is needed 100mb of internal storage.

Yes, for sure!!
...no, you can do a partition with the size that you want. This script mount your /sd-ext as your /data partition so you can use all space you want in your sd-ext partition

According to MiniTool Partition Wizard, yes, I have 1 FAT32 (about 30GB) and another Ext3 partition. However, the device doesn't read it, and I cannot partition through either TWRP or CWM. I'm testing Cronmod on CM10.1 now, will update.

TWRP or CWM should not be used to create a new ext partition if your sdcard already have another ext partition. Meaning you should have only one ext partition in your sdcard. So delete the ext3 partition and the fat32 partition, then create a single new fat32 partition on the 32BG sdcard. Now use the recovery mod to create the ext partition. That should work. Between Link2SD and CronMod, I would always go for CronMod. Then again its my opinion. Any way if you have any problem, just post here and I'll be glad to help

Steps taken: Copied files directly through Cronmod ZIP (INt2EXtV2+) to respective places (i.e. /system/etc/init.d/) using FX File Explorer, rebooted, and it BOOTS!

Oh my gosh. Link2SD is saying that there is no second partition.
Apparently the other init.d files are rwxr-xr-x, root, shell, but 40int2ext is rwxr-xr-x, root, root. Is that normal too?

EDIT: I'm manually flashing Cronmod again, instead of copying directly, as TWRP and CWM 6 didn't allow. CWM 5 works like a charm.

You should know that CronMod and Link2SD doesn't work together. Since CronMod is present, Link2sd can't find the ext partition. What is the size of your ext partition. What rom are you using now? For every 512MB sd-ext partition you need a 100MB space on /data. So please limit your sd-ext patition to 1GB max.

As a last resort, try to reflash this rom. Make sure to backup all the data. Take the rom file, extract it, put 40int2ext file inside /system/etc/init.d/ and then compress it back. Now go to CWM, do "Wipe Data/ Factory reset", "Wipe cache partitions", Mount & Storage> "Format /system" and "Format /sd-ext", Advanced> "Wipe Dalvik Cache" and "Wipe Battery Stats". Now reflash the custom rom. This should pretty much solve it. Restore all the necessary data.

I've tried that already, and the device went into a bootloop. However, I used GParted to partition 777MB sd-ext, and the rest FAT32, and it boot up after flashing CM10.1 > GApps > CronMod INT2EXT4
The only problem was that the memory remained the same, and Partition info showed /sd-ext (EXT 0.00B/0.00B)
EDIT: For some reason sd-ext doesn't mount, but formats perfectly.
