This post will interest many. a few days ago my internal memory is physically dead, the memory (16GB) is partitioned into two, /data (~ 2GB) and /sdcard (~ 14GB). Not having these partitions the phone can not save settings or user data.
Symptoms:
* Internal sd corrupt (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=845708)
* (I/O) error in factory reset
* mmcblk0p1 y mmcblk0p2 does not appear in /dev/block/
* Boot loop
* E: can not mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p1 in recovery, or updating rom
* You can't install applications, since /data does not exist
Please I need your help to move the partition /data to external sd memory (/dev/block/mmcblk1p2).
I Create two partitions fat32 (/dev/block/mmcblk1p1) and ext4 (/dev/block/mmcblk1p2) and edit the fstab file and vold.fstab. the system now recognizes the FAT32 partition of the external memory as internal memory but the partition /data does not mount the second partition of external SD.

The busybox df-h command shows that the first partition is mounted, but the second partition is not listed .
I've tried everything, and what I see is that it requires more knowledge. Not whether to build or edit the kernel or some file.
I appreciate your help, since many users have a higher Know-how on this topic.

I tried to edit the initramfs folder to edit files lpm.rc init.rc and fota.rc, i download many kernels to remove zImage and edit images and package them again, but does not work, not that I'm doing wrong.
Someone who has worked with the edition of the kernel can help me build or rebuild a file with the new changes.
Hey,
I like to mount my external SD Card as ext3 to support large files. The SD Card is formatted with ext3 but now Android shows only an empty folder.
So i tried to remount the SD:
Code:
mount -o rw,remount -t ext3 /dev/block/vold/197:33 /mnt/sdcard/externald_sd
But it doesnt use something... Does anybody has an idea? Some Example or sthing else?

u need a kernel that supports ext3. u can ask one of the guys compiling at the moment if they have time to add an ext3 module for u.
May be a stupid question:
would ext4 work instead? I thought the system partition would use this FS.
filesystem is already ext4

well the system uses ext4 so it should work, but i'm not sure what u're trying to achieve. i use a 16 gb class 10 formatted fat32

He's talking about formatting external sd-card
When I get him right, he has a file that exceeds the 4GB FAT32 limit.
So he looks for an alternative to FAT32, which might be some kind of ext*-FS.
wintel your right!
In the Android-Hilfe Forum someone said the system expect first an vfat partition and then the ext. I think thats wrong cause its not working but somehow it has to go.
Hmm should I write these mount command I postet in the init.rc? Or something else. Would be very nice if you post your ideas!
Thanks
init.rc+ ext3 module/object included in kernel
Hmm okay thats good but how do I use them? So I can read and write to my external sd card with an ext3 or ext2 partition.
Thanks
Come on guys where are the great developers?!
Ok I did a test with busybox inbuilt mount, but I tried only with an image.
Not with a real SD card! This worked for me:
On a linux box:
# dd if=/dev/zero of=/tmp/image bs=1M count=1k
# mkfs.ext4 /tmp/image
Copy file to your phone. Then:
On the phone with terminal:
# mkdir /sdcard/mmnt
# busybox mount -o loop /sdcard/image /sdcard/mmnt
To unmount:
# busybox umount -l /sdcard/mmnt
Anybody tried that?
If I understand u right u puting an image file (ext3/4) on the sd and mount that as a virtual disk. Wouldn't the image file be bound to the same restrictoins as other content on a fat32 file system? Like the 4 gig limit!

create a linux primary type 83
type mount and grab the /dev/sdcX value (it was /dev/sdc1 for me)
umount that
then

had to reboot twice for it to be seen in file manager...
its buggy but it does work for the most part
Reviving an old thread, but I just found that I can format a MicroSD under NTFS and it will work with Paragon's NTFS module. At the very least, my phone will mount the drive. I partitioned and formatted it with ext4 on my Linux machine and it didn't recognize it, but I did have it use the GUID partition table. Hoping to be able to load up some videos to take with me.

The problem is with the shell interpreting the special character ":"
To make it work, first create a symlink to the device node:
Code:
ln -s /dev/block/vold/197\:17 /dev/sd2
Then mount it:
Code:
busybox mount /dev/sd2 /mnt/tmp
Code:
sh-4.1# ls -l /dev/sd2
lrwxrwxrwx root root 2013-11-16 14:45 sd2 -> /dev/block/vold/179:17
sh-4.1# mount|grep sd2
/dev/sd2 /mnt/tmp ext4 rw,relatime,user_xattr,acl,barrier=1,data=ordered 0 0

An improvement in technique to mount ext formatted SDcard:
1) be root and open terminal
2) insert the card
3) see the block device and partition names from dmesg
4) mount device to location of choice (create the directory if needed)
Below is an example of an SD card with one ext4 partition on it
Code:
bash-4.1# dmesg | tail | grep mmc

Would this work just the same way with i9000?
After this, no more access to the extSD by the Windows PC but only with Ubuntu, right?

Since it's generic Linux kernel and busybox functionality it should work on any 'droid. The SDcard device name might be different than in the above example - you will see the correct device and partition names after you insert SDcard and run `dmesg | tail` on the tablet or phone.
(of course your device must be rooted and have busybox...)
Typically Windows is engineered not to recognise anything that does not come from Microsoft, so you will not be able to mount the Linux partition via Windows.
My Galaxy S device is 8GB type then I have only 5.6 GB left for install application and data but it does not enough.
So I brought micro sd 32GB to hope that it will help this case but it's not because some game or application will keep data and information in /mnt/sdcard/Android/data
such as many kind of gameloft.
First I tried to use run script as following command below:
mount -o bind /mnt/emmc/data/ /mnt/sdcard/Android/data
and it does work but if you want to connect to PC you must to umount before mount with PC unless you will find some error and must reboot your phone.
My simple question is "Can we change name of emmc for micro sd to another name?"
such as /mnt/emmc to /mnt/sdcard/Android
Thank in advance.

Hey guys.
Some previous Samsung devices had no external storage at all but still mapped the biggest flash partition to /mnt/sdcard.
The Galaxy Tab 2 7.0 has a Micro SD card slot on it (one of the reasons I bought the thing!), but I guess for compatibility they still mount an internal flash storage partition to /sdcard. The actual micro SD card gets mounted to freaking /mnt/extSdCard.
Why does this matter?
Basically, tons of stuff in Android is setup to dump the large files to /sdcard by default. Things like games that require an extra download, the Camera app, etc. I've got a 32GB microSD card in there, and it makes me really frustrated that stuff won't just automatically use that.
So. What I'm looking to do is switch them around, so the internal fake flash partition ends up mounting to /mnt/extSdCard and the REAL microSD card mounts to /mnt/sdcard. That way my big huge card is where most data will end up automagically. Ultimately if I could just dump the internal "sdcard" partition and give that space to other parts of the system, that'd be sweet, but at this point I'm still kindof in la la land with Android, so I'll be happy just to get the mounts flipped around.
I do Linux stuff for work, and use a 5-disk file server at home running Ubuntu Server, so I approached this problem in a Linux way: why not mount via fstab??
Turns out Android doesn't actually directly have a /etc/fstab. Instead you've got /system/etc/vold.fstab.
From my brief research, this file appears to work pretty much the same way as fstab in Linux.
However, the stock one doesn't contain any mountpoint for the fake internal sdcard. vold.fstab seems to tell the vold executable what to do during boot-time.
My first problem: the vold.fstab file on my device doesn't contain any mount instructions for the /sdcard device.
Not a problem, I have SSH and WinSCP working, so I got a read on the mount points likeso:
Code:
127|[email protected]:/dev/block # cat /proc/mounts

OK. so the vold.fstab file contains:
Code:
## Vold 2.0 Generic fstab
## - San Mehat ([email protected])
##
#######################
## Regular device mount
##
## Format: dev_mount <label> <mount_point> <part> <sysfs_path1...>
## label - Label for the volume
## mount_point - Where the volume will be mounted
## part - Partition # (1 based), or 'auto' for first usable partition.
## <sysfs_path> - List of sysfs paths to source devices
######################

#usb host device
dev_mount usbdisk /mnt/usbdisk auto /devices/platform/omap/musb-omap2430/musb-hdrc/usb1
So, I have made a backup of my vold.fstab file, but I'm a little gun shy about making changes to it, particularly adding a new line for the "internal" sdcard. I know there are a couple of other ways to probably do this, like an init.d shell script that just executes the needed mount commands, and I'm honestly not sure if putting an entry for /mnt/sdcard into vold.fstab will override the mounts that are (I guess?) coming from the ramdisk init sequence. Any input, XDA devs?
Go for it :thumbup:

I have the same Problem on my Galaxy Tab2 7.0 WIFI (GT-P3110 8 GB). I found a temporary Soloution for me. The App that i use is LINK2SD. You should have two partitions on SD card and both should be primary.
The first FAT partition is your standard sdcard (mountetd on extSdCard). The second partition /data/sdext2 is used for application files and can be ext2, ext3, ext4 or FAT32. Here are more informations about it: http://rootzwiki.com/topic/24500-if...move-apps-to-sd-card/page__st__10#entry701146
In this thread are the same Question: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1679037
I think it will read the changes. For example on the htc rezound the firmware update for ics changed the mount points from what was used in gb.So in order to run a gb Rom on ics firmware and vice versa the Fix was swaping vstab. Figure as long as u only mess with the sd mounts internal and ext. It will still boot and u can swap file as needed for testing.

I'll try and figure it out.
Already found one thing: running the mount command with no switches will list all current mounts (can't believe I forgot that!).

I have this in mine i didnt see it in yours
#storage_struct = series, "/mnt/sdcard/extStorages"
#storage_struct = parallel
Making progress, I was able to mount the "external" sdcard to my test mountpoint using:
mount -t vfat -o umask=0000 /dev/block/vold/179:25 /mnt/testing
So, that's part of the puzzle figured out. Now, just need to sort of out the internal "sdcard" device path and then I guess I can try throwing stuff into vold.fstab
OK I believe I have a solution will work, based on the init.d script inside the package Mattiadj made and Rostol linked me to (thanks!).
I modified his init.d script likeso:
Code:
sleep 2
mount -o remount,rw /
mkdir -p /data/internal_sd
mount -o bind /mnt/sdcard /data/internal_sd
mount -t vfat -o umask=0000 /dev/block/vold/179:25 /mnt/testing
mount -o bind /data/internal_sd /mnt/extSdCard
vold has to be used for external storage. The internal storage isn't very flexible, which is why that guy's script just binds it up during boot time rather than some other method of mounting it.
I have just run the commands in a terminal one by one and they all appear to do exactly what they "should", and I have verified that the result is the "real" sdcard being mounted to /mnt/sdcard, which ALSO makes it accessible at /sdcard (which I think is just a symlink). That's the default target for most apps, so after installing this init.d script I think everything should "just work".
Obviously you could adjust the mount point for the "internal" sdcard space as needed.
Working on the script and installation bit now.

OK I am having some problems getting the init.d script to work properly.
My working code is:
Code:
#!/system/bin/sh
LOG=/data/local/tmp/sdcard.txt
exec 3>&1 4>&2 >$LOG 2>&1
echo "Script start"
echo "Sleeping 2 seconds"
sleep 2
echo "Now attempting to remount root filesystem RW"
mount -o remount,rw /
echo "Make the internal_sd directory"
mkdir -p /data/internal_sd
echo "Bind the internal sdcard to the new folder"
mount -o bind /mnt/sdcard /data/internal_sd
echo "Mount the real sdcard"
mount -t vfat -o umask=0000 /dev/block/vold/179:25 /mnt/sdcard
echo "Bind the internal_sd directory to the extSdCard mountpoint"
mount -o bind /data/internal_sd /mnt/extSdCard
echo "Script done"
Basically I am logging the output to /data/local/tmp/sdcard.txt, so I can debug.
In that log, it gets as far as the first mount command, and then things go off the rails:
Code:
Script start
Sleeping 2 seconds
Now attempting to remount root filesystem RW
Make the internal_sd directory
Bind the internal sdcard to the new folder
mount: Invalid argument
Mount the real sdcard
mount: No such file or directory
Bind the internal_sd directory to the extSdCard mountpoint
Script done
What's messed up is, the same mount command (with the bind) works fine once the device is all the way booted up.
Its just during the "init" sequence that it has a problem. I have no idea why

That guy did it via vold.fstab, which is interesting.
The relevant stuff:
Code:
# external sd card
dev_mount sdcard /mnt/sdcard:none:lun1 auto /devices/platform/tegra-sdhci.2/mmc_host/mmc2 /devices/platform/tegra-sdhci.2/mmc_host/mmc1
# internal eMMC
dev_mount sdcard_ext /mnt/sdcard-ext 18 /devices/platform/tegra-sdhci.3/mmc_host/mmc0
I am honestly not too sure what I'm looking at there, so I'm gonna try some stuff in vold.fstab next.
OK, I am too tired to keep messing around with this for tonight, so I am trying out a new method: I moved my init script over to /data and then used Script Manager to make it run as root as boot time.
This is obviously not a permanent fix, but should be OK for tonight.
Basically my big problem is I don't know the syntax for vold.fstab to mount the internal sdcard to a new mount point...
Ahh the joys of doing weird hacky stuff to your tablet... I pretty much gave up on the vold.fstab working in the short term, and instead just tried setting my init script up as just a regular "run at launch" script using Script Manager.
The version of my script that I posted had unforeseen consequences. For whatever reason, doing a "bind" of /mnt/sdcard like I was doing caused all sorts of things to stop working. Like, Script Manager was locking up, as was Root Explorer!
The best one was that when my alarm clock went to go off this morning it crashed, and I was late for work! LOL
Sooo yeah, that's pretty special. I had to use Terminal Emulator to fix my stuff on the bus on the way to work
I have revised my script and it now works perfectly with the caveat that I'm simply unmounting the internal "sdcard" partition and letting it sit there unused.
Code:
#!/system/bin/sh
LOG=/data/local/tmp/sdcard.txt
exec 3>&1 4>&2 >$LOG 2>&1
echo "Script start"
echo "Unmount internal sdcard"
umount /mnt/sdcard
echo "Mount the real sdcard"
mount -t vfat -o umask=0000 /dev/block/vold/179:25 /mnt/sdcard
echo "Script done"
I believe because of vold.fstab the microSD card still gets mounted to /mnt/extSdCard. My script puts it at /mnt/sdcard as well. This seems to work OK because then the few programs that are smart enough to access the card via /mnt/extSdCard still can get to it, but everything else that works on the regular sdcard also goes to the sdcard as well.
I have tested out the camera, music player, Root Explorer, Script Manager, etc. Everything I have tried works exactly as expected.
The next thing I'll need to test out is if this script can be used as an init.d script instead of needing Script Manager to set it up to run at boot.
I figure the only other things to do are:
1-figure out what's needed to be able to mount the internal "sdcard" partition to a different mount point
or
2-figure out how to delete the "sdcard" partition and then just give that extra space to one of the other flash partitions (probably /system?)
I really am hoping you get this figured out and it can be used by us common folk. (I'm no hacker) Lol :thumbup:

my internal sd is corrupted (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1861294&page=2) so my external sd have ext4 partition and the rom runs only for this partition but i don't have external storage now, i tryed to modify the vold.fstab but nothing :V
PS:Sorry for my bad english xD
Code:
## Vold 2.0 Generic fstab

#######################
## Regular device mount

## Format: dev_mount <label> <mount_point> <part> <sysfs_path1...>
## label - Label for the volume
## mount_point - Where the volume will be mounted
## part - Partition # (1 based), or 'auto' for first usable partition.
## <sysfs_path> - List of sysfs paths to source devices

# sdcard mount for the P1

asec = disable
}
dev_mount [COLOR="Red"]sdcard /mnt/sdcard 1[/COLOR] /devices/platform/s3c-sdhci.0/mmc_host/mmc0

dev_mount [COLOR="Cyan"]sdcard1 /mnt/sdcard/external_sd auto[/COLOR] /devices/platform/s3c-sdhci.2/mmc_host/mmc2
#end line ## keep this line
Modified the red line with blue line and vice versa and the second partition of external sd (FAT32) is the first internal sd, but the second internal storage doesn't exist

I have had galaxy i9000 7-8 times in the past (because i switched occationally and sgs always fashinated me to buy)
the directory @limnaln said was the right directory but in 2-3 models, the directory for external sd card was mnt/sdcard/external_sd.

Yep, someplaces its sdcard1, someplaces external_sdcard.
ok guys it's work but when i use camera it's fine, but fast reboot when i want install app, tryed with root browse and whatsapp...what i have to do? tryed with 3Wipe and formatting sd but always reboot after downloading an app and during install
I think, you should change ROM to another (for example CyanogenMod) and try one more time.

i can't because my internal sd is corrupted and when i tryed to install cm 10.2 it say "waiting sd mount 20s" :crying:
my sd card is /sdcard/external_sd auto....it isn't /mnt/sdcard/external_sd...and i don't know why...and this change can't find my internal sdcard any idea?
Maybe i can try this solution:
Code:
For i9000, Do the FULL wipes and factory reset first (formating the Internal SD card will greatly help, so safe all your contacts, images backups to PC or Ext SD card First) Use i9000 Rescue kit with heimdall or on linux , select files as follows...
primary boot > boot.bin
secondary boot > Sbl.bin
repartition > s1_odin_20100512.pit
factoryfs > factoryfs.rfs
cache > cache.rfs
dbdata > dbdata.rfs
param > param.lfs
modem > modem.bin
kernel > zImage
The reboot may request for "Confirm password", just enter any password about 5 times until prompted that, "this will wipe the card." Yes wipe, ..Should solve the problem
but only found hotfile's link that not working now
