Some apps I notice ask to save to SD card but since I am booting and running from an SD card I can't do that. Could I clone to a larger SD card and make a partition for those apps to save to instead of a separate SD card.

If you are running your CM10 on an SD, then as part of the installation process a media partition was already created on the SD so that you have a place for apps to save to sdcard. Why do you think you don't have that space?

Just didn't know. Still getting use to Android. I didn't know for sure if the Ap saw a folder any different than a separate removable media. Looking in the file manager I didn't see a list of partitions as I would see in other Linux file managers but now I see it under Android. Thank you.

I created some partitions for the Spartacus Kernel awhile back. I'd like to remove them now. I've Odined back to a stock ROM but they are still there.
Not sure but maybe backup everything you want from your sd card to your computer and then format your sd card.

I tried formatting the SD card and that did not work. Thank you though.
Any other ideas?
Any help please?
There is free partition manager software available online that you can download to your PC to manage any partitions on your SD card (and PC hard drive as an added bonus).

So I want to format my sd card because I have a 16gig sd and put all my apps on the phone and its still half gone. I have no music on the sd. My question is, if I format/erase the sd card will it screw up my rom managment? Also in my root exsplorer there are files I am unsure wut they are. Any thoughts?

I was using stock 2.2.1 and had LOTS of apps on my SD card. I cleared roughly 1 GB my moving my songs, and then installed MIUI. So, now I know that lots of space on my SD card is being consumed by apps that I no longer use. How do I clear those? Thank You.
Have you tried formatting the ext partition?

What solution is this?
To format entire sd card everytime you want to delete some apps?
The appications that are installed on sd card go to .android_secure folder.
Seems that is empty but it isn't. You can delete it, will be created again by system if needed.
I have been using an SD card in my NC. I have now rooted my NC and want to copy over apps and files. What directories and files do I need to copy?
Do I need to reinstall the apps like Kindle and Kobo? How. Google Play sees the rooted NC as the same device as the SD card and won't let me install. I didn't want to delete them from the SD card so I could again use the SD card should I ever be unable to get the NC to boot its internal OS.

When you say you rooted your NC, do you mean you added root access to stock or do you mean you replaced stock with CM that is rooted?
To save your installed apps and settings from the SD, just use Titanium Backup and then you can restore to whatever you have on internal.

Yes. Thanks.
Okay I installed Titanium Backup on the SD card and backuped to the card. Now how do I get it on the internal OS of my NC. Sorry for being so dense. Do I have to uninstall on the CM10 SD card and reinstall on NC OS or what.

Copy the Titanium Backup folder created after you backed up the SD to the "emmc" folder on internal memory. Then install Titanium backup on the NC OS and the after booting to NC OS copy the backup folder from emmc to your standard SD. Then restore your apps with TB.

Sorry, I though I'd deleted that but thank you for the answer. Digging more at Google Play I was able to install the apps to the internal NC OS. Was simpler to just redo. All is good and I am happy with my $44 Android tablet. Thanks all who helped me over the last few weeks.
