i have lg540 with android 2.1

You can use whatever size you wish from your SDcard towards this, it just depends on what size you create the partitions at. You can even use 100% of your SDcard if you really wanted to... not that I could see why anyone would actually want to do that...

Something you could also look at... is the data2ext option, it moves the /data partition onto your SDcard... so ALL applications will be installed onto it by default. (This is not a good idea for a SDcard below Class 6)

Personaly, I have a 16GB SDcard... with 128MB swap and 2048MB EXT4 for apps (remainder in FAT32... der).
