I tried to do this, and now the tablet will not find the card. I formated it and still nothing. Send help if you find it.

I succeed partitioning /nand
I made one FAT32 of 1.5gb and one ext2 500 mb
X5A recognize the fat32 for now, so I think I am on one step ahead but how can I mount the new ext2 part?

Thanks very much

I installed link2sd on my samsung ace s5830. I had also partitioned 8gb sd card making 512 mb as ext2 and rest as FAT32 (both primary). When I open Link2sd app, it asks to select second partition of my sd card. After selecting ext2 i get Root Access Warning as "link2sd could not gain root access. if you have root access make sure you respond 'allow' to superuser prompt" Please help
