Making Link2SD work on Galaxy 5 (Eclair 2.1)
Get
Root, install
Link2SD and follow the instructions/requirements
Run Link2SD so that it creates the startup scripts
After this is where we reboot but Link2SD still doesn't work
Method 11. Install
Root ExplorerIts not free but you can find it floating around.
2. Open root explorer and go to /etc folder
3. Tap the 'Mount R/W' button on the top right.
4. Find 'install-recovery.sh'. Tap and hold the file until the options menu appears. Select 'Open in Text Editor'
CODE
#!/system/bin/sh
#added by link2sd
sleep 2
mount -t ext2 ......
........
5. Change line 3 which reads 'sleep 2' to 'sleep 10' or more like 'sleep 20' if it doesn't work
6. Save changes and reboot
Method 21. Open
Terminal Emulator and type
CODE
$ su
# mount -o rw,remount -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system
2. Use a file manager like
ES File Explorer to open /etc/install-recovery.sh and edit it like steps 4,5 & 6 from Method 1
3. Undo the changes we did to file permissions in terminal emulator
CODE
$ su
# mount -o ro,remount -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system
