Re: ext2 partition on G1 Android

Some things that come to mind:


1) Is your ext2 partition your 2nd partition?  When loading, Android
relies on the order of the partition not their type.


2) Is the partition formatted?  The boot might fail if it can't mount
the partition.


If you have adb installed, an 'adb logcat' will probably show you what's
going on even if the phone doesn't complete the boot.

ext2 partition on G1 Android

2009-08-20 Thread eliyahu cohen
I'm trying to setup apps2sd on a G1. I can resize the fat32 partition without a 
problem, but whenever I add an ext2 partition to the SD card, the phone wont 
come up after a reboot. I've tried partitioning with fdisk, gparted, and 
sdsplit (as per http://code.google.com/p/android-roms/wiki/Fat_Ext2_Partition). 
Any ideas what could be wrong?
