Hi Bro, I have checked on the link and downloaded all the required files. I have some queries.

1. How do I create partition Ext 3?

2. I checked LeeDroid thread and found that Leedroid 1.7 requires a new radio. I have downloaded that too. What is the step I should take? Install Radio first as per the blog guide and then install the ROM?

1) Download a program from the market called ROM Manager. In order to use this, you must root your phone first. Then, using ROM Manager, there is an option to create a partition. Enter Ext3 - 512MB and Swap - 0MB.

2) You can do it either way. I personally flash the ROM first before installing the new Radio. And follow this guide :

Flashing of Radio is exactly the same process as flashing a ROM.

Thanks for your help bro. Will try out later tonight. Once installed the new ROM, can i delete the ROM file i copied earlier from the SD card?

Good, I am using that as well, Leedroid ROM 1.7 is giving me some headache (not able to install app from market, restarts everytime I install) - luckily the nandroid recovery stuff works!

EDIT: Formatting from the phone works - of course, backup whatever data you have first
Hi bro, I planned to install Leedroid ROM 1.7, mind sharing on the problems you are facing using it.

Hi Sifus, finally managed to root my desire and installed LeeDroid 1.7b. All seems to be fine and the system is quite stable too but I'm facing problem to create an ext partition. I used ROM Manager to create the partition and the phone rebooted to recovery mode but there is an error msg

--Install from sdcard...
Finding update package...
Opening update package...
Verifying update package...
E:failed to open /sdcard/update.zip (No such file or directory)
E:signature verification failed
Installation aborted.

What should I do now... Please help....

try reflash your clockwordmod before you do partition~~

Yes my setting widget is working and I can add it in my homescreen. How do I reflash my clockwordmod?

Tried that, and the problem still persisted

That's the reason why I am on stock (2.1) now  shakehead.gif

I had succesfully created an ext partition. Thanks a lot bro Draco for your advice. Now, I have another question, how do I verify that the apps are installed in the SDCard?
