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.

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

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

Do you have an ext4 partition? It is better to have a 1 GB ext4 partition. You can create a partition using 4EXT recovery.

Ok, Check if your partitions are aligned. Use 4EXT recovery to check for and correct partition alignments.
Secondly, use the APK or the zip file version of m2sd if you want to.

done check and it say is perfectly aligned.
secondly i used APK and it say "The init.d startup script could not be copied to the system partition.".
note that i install other rom and a2sd work great without any of this error

I'm also having the same problem as dev.mahmoud.
I installed the latest nightly from Evervolv from today. Busybox configured with no problem. When I try to install the script, I get: The init.d starup script could not be copied to the system partition.

CronMod requires your rom to have init.d support. Stock roms doesn't have init.d enabled by default. But you can flash any custom kernels like cf root to enable init.d support. Once you have enabled init.d support, you can then install CronMod. Here is the link to cf root kernel,

You have an ext partition on the SD Card right? If you already have an ext partition, then make sure that you have set the right permission to 40int2ext. The right permission is rwx-rx-x. If you don't have one, take a backup of the SD Card and then go to CWM> Advanced> Partition SD Card> Size (1 GB anymore than that and the system will lag)> Swap (0MB) and finally wait for it to say "Partitioning Done !!!". If you already have 40int2ext file on init.d folder, then just reboot. If you have deleted it, then mount /system from CWM and install it again. That should do it. Do post the result. Hope I Helped
