Guest s3lentium Posted July 20, 2010 Report Posted July 20, 2010 Good morning How can I format SD for A2SD with Windows XP please? Thank you very much
Guest tinyk Posted July 20, 2010 Report Posted July 20, 2010 Formatting to that standard from what I understand is quite unreliable using windows to do it, its better done on your phone using fake flash to do it. If you want to go that way, search my posts about a week ago i asked a similar question and it was answered with the details required to format whilst in recovery mode. If you really want to go down the pc route do a google search, their are a couple threads about with tiny linux builds where you boot to linux from your pc then use that to format the card, again more reliable than using windows from what I read.

Guest s3lentium Posted July 20, 2010 Report Posted July 20, 2010 Yeah, having problems with format in recovery mode. Format was not possible. I also wanted 0MB SWAP and 1024 for EXT3. I am now taking the http://gparted.sourceforge.net/. Thank you very much and sorry for the Post

Guest ruffruff Posted July 22, 2010 Report Posted July 22, 2010 Good morning How can I format SD for A2SD with Windows XP please? Thank you very much i use Paragon Partition Manager. Works on my 7 x64, so i will definitely work in xp. first i partition my card with 14gb of fat32 and the rest i partition to ext3. plug in the card and app2sd works. :(
Guest Posted July 22, 2010 Report Posted July 22, 2010 i use Paragon Partition Manager.

Tried it yesterday with ROM Manager and it just left where ext3 should have been as unused space. Just done it with Paragon and it's ext3 all the way. Thanks!
Guest EddyOS Posted July 22, 2010 Report Posted July 22, 2010 I just use fake-flash as opposed to ROM Manager (which I don't use for ANYTHING as it's a waste of time IMO) and it partitions cards fine, can use 1GB EXT2/3 pertitions with no issues
