I've created a 2nd partition on my 32GB micro SD card so that I can use Link2SD and create symbolic links. I created the partition as Ext2 (Primary), but I am receiving a Mount script error. 'Mount script cannot be created. Ext2 may not be supported on your device'.
I have a Galaxy S4 (rooted) with stock rom.
Does anyone know why I'm getting this error and what I can possibly do to resolve this? I'd really appreciate some help with this.

I have been using OmniROM KitKat on my Galaxy S2 for a while with no problems. I've recently had a GPS issue (still don't know the cause but that's another issue for another day) so decided to update my ROM to the latest nightly. The update went well, but then I found that I could not access any of my apps that had been copied using Link2SD.
I had created an EXT3 partition on my SD card and linked all files onto there using Link2SD. It had been working perfectly before but the update had obviously changed something in my system. When I run Link2SD, I get the following message:
mount: Device or resource busy
Googling this it looks like the partition is already mounted (a2sd?) or some scripts are missing. (Link2SD still has root permissions) I've had a look in init.d but can't see anything remiss, though I'm moving out of my comfort zone here.
Can anyone tell me what I should do next? Do I need to delete and recreate the EXT3 partition, copying the data back on to it? Would uninstalling and reinstalling Link2SD help, or would that cause even more trouble?
Finally, if I do another ROM update, what should I do to stop this happening again?
Thanks for your help.
I've had some success with this. I reformatted the partition to be FAT32 and Link2SD accepted this and created the necessary mount links. I then copied the files (apk etc) back onto the partition and everything is working again.
Now is FAT32 a good option for this partition or is it best to use EXT?

It depends on your kernel - try ext4 else reformat your sd card in cwm to create the 2nd partition & use a custom kernel with ext support
Hello there.
I am currently running Android 5.0 LP (AllianceROM v9.1.1) on my rooted SGs5 klte G900F using TWRP and 64GB Samsung EVO MicroSDCard.
I just recently ran into some issues and wiped everything and reinstalled Alliance and started anew. B4 this happened i had partitioned my extSDcard and had Link2SD app and mounted my 2nd partition as ext4 and everythijg was fine. I researched about RAM swap so and Multi System Virtual Rom so ibwent ahead and wiped my extSDcard and Repartioned it With a 3rd n 4th partition.
1st partition: 44GB FAT32 for pics, Music ect.
2nd partition: 6GB SWAP for RAM
3rd partition: 6GB EXT4 for Link2SD
4th Partition: 9GB FAT32 for Multi System
I Just mounted my 2nd partition for SWAP and is working.
However i just opwned LINK2SD PRO and did as i did before and attemoted to mount scripts to ext4 and reboot and now i get an error saying Unable to mount: Invalid Arguement...
IF ANYONE CAN plz help me oit with this id greatly appreciate it as i have no clue what to do from here. Thank you for your time.
Hello. I install CM7 with this guide on wiki cyanogenmod org (Install_CM_for_jordan)
I create 2 primary partition on my sd card: FAT32 10GB and Ext4 5GB
I have fresh installation, connect WiFi, google account and I install Link2SD.
Then i Try (re)create mount script in Link2SD(Plus) I got following error:
Mount script error
Mount script cannot be created.
mount: mounting /dev/block/vold/179:2 on /data/sdext2 failed: No such device
I don't know how to fix it. I searched on forums but I can't understand. Can you help me fix it step by step?
I really need Link2SD. I used it on my previous phone and work great.
How I should fix this?
Hi,
I think your header tells it all.
/data/sdext2 failed: No such device. You formatted your sd card with ext4 but link2sd is looking for ext2.
Have your tried to format the 2nd partition of your sd with ext2?
In my point of view 5GB for the link2sd partition is too much. 1 GB should be sufficient.

Hello guys, I have the same problem. Thanks Gazorbem for your advice, but app itself asks about the system that it will search for (user can indicate whether it is ext2 or ext4 etc.) I tried all options available (although I know that my partition is in format ext3) but problem still remains - app still can't mount this partition
