internal memory

So has anyone been able to figure out how to use the internal memory for movies/music/pictures
I've been able to add items to the internal memory via an update.zip installed through Clockwork.

I don't think you understood my question. but how would I install my music/movies/pics through an update file, and be able to see it in music player and gallery.

I understood your question. I create an update.zip containing the folder structure that Android recognizes, and then I script them to install to internal memory. After rebooting, my ROM is untouched and I have the files in the internal memory.
Can you not just use root explorer to move the media files to a place on internal memory.?

You can put them there with root explorer, but the only place I know of that you can put files on the internal memory is /data. If you place them anywhere else they will disappear after a reboot. I have movies on mine (with root explorer)but in order for the app (rockplayer) to see them I have to remount and chmod the /data directory. I have a very simple script in gscript to do this with as the permissions reset themselves after reboot. Here is the command:
mount -o rw,remount -t yaffs2/dev/block/mtdblock3 /data chmod 777 /data
The whole thing is a pain and the stock apps don't see the internal memory so you have to use rockplayer or vplayer to use the files. The update.zip is probably a better solution, but I would have no idea how to go about that.

Init.d scripts and doomkernel v3

Can anyone tell me if they have gotten init.d scripts to work on boot or not with doomkernel v3. I'm trying to get link2sd or app2sd to work. Link2sd would never mount the sdcard on boot for me, and the app2sd never created a log file in the /data/sdext2 folder like it should.

/data/sdext2/ is the directory link2sd uses. Apps2sd uses the /sd-ext/ directory.

That's good to know, but doesn't tell me if anyone has gotten any startup scripts to run or not using that firmware.

Ok, I've confirmed that the scripts are running, it just isn't mounting the partition on boot.

Which CWM and TB folder to keep?

Should I keep the one at the root of the SD or the one in /0?
Also, can anyone explain the two folders to me - /sdcard and /sdcard/0/? Which one is just a backup of older stuff?

They are both the same, i.e. different paths to the same directory, so you mustn't remove any one of it.
If I switch to tell, can I delete the cwm folder?

I second the motion - don't dink with the directory structure.
If you can't tell what is important, you are sure to mess it up.
/storage/emulated/0 is the first (primary) user. /storage/emulated/10 in the second user, etc.
/storage/legacy is all your apps apparently installed before 4.2.
/sdcard is the root of the writeable file system. I think it is the same as /storage/sdcard0.
A lot of what look like duplicate files will really be symlinks to the one original file, or the original directory.

You mean you made a partition on your sdcard using swapper?
Use mini partition wizard/tool on pc to remove/make partitions. Or search for such partition tools and use any you prefer.
