So why does it list a line saying external MMC card ext2 when I want it to list internal MMC, ext2 and ext3? And what can I do to fix that? I get offered internal flash, internal MMC partition 2 ext2, external MMC partition 2 ext2 (N/A),or power off. I used that internal.txt file I listed above.

I just noticed in my err.log file it says it can't open the 800-clone.sh file. I don't see a file by that name in the install-tools directory. Is it supposed to be there?

How many times did you run it? You would have had to run it at least twice. Is the other partition there?
If its ext3 it should say ext2 and list both. Sometimes it appears to work and it does not. Sometimes you need to install it more than twice.
You could try installing bootmenu-installer, it will detect any partitions ext2/3 and write out a new bootmenu

Make sure virtual memory is off in the control panel also
Not sure what to say, but I guess if you dont see ext3 and you used that config, something went wrong somewhere

I've just run this on an N800 w 2008. AFAICT it worked just fine (I needed to run it twice) - Thanks!
I've got an 8G internal card, and set it up with a 4G FAT partition... only now I'm not sure how to get to that partition. I can see that it's a FAT16 on /dev/mmcblk0p1, but now what?
The file manager sees it as "Internal memory card" but cannot format it. Do I need to run makefs? Something else?
I'm hoping to have that 4G drive available via USB. Anything additional I need to to to make that happen?
Thanks, again...

what does df -h say
df -h
??
If you have a windows system and plug it in usb what happens? It should already be formatted, but you could try to format under windows via usb.

I can access /media/mmc2 (the mounted FAT partition) via file manager and the command line. But the file manager sees it as "Internal memory card" not as MMC2.
I can both umount and mount - and that works as I'd expect.
The file manager "i" reports that "Internal memory card" has 3.9G, and I've tried creating files and folders there, and that works fine, so it seems the partition is both mounted and formatted.
So maybe my issue is just USB access (and possibly naming is part of that) How do you name a volume in linux, anyway? Seems like volumes and names just aren't part of the linux filesystem paradigm, but, hey, I'm new here.
Thanks!
Bob

I want to say there is a way to update something to allow you to use this feature, but I do no recall what off the top of my head. I just dont use the USB cable for that purpose, so I am not sure.
I get a message box (on the N800) "Unable to connect via USB. Memory card in use: Internal memory card" - and the FAT part of the card is not visible in windows. I also checked the disk management subsystem, where it might have appeared if it wasn't formatted, but it wasn't there, either.Code:Filesystem Size Used Available Use% Mounted on /dev/mmcblk0p2 4.0M 2.2M 1.8M 54% /mnt/initfs none 512.0k 100.0k 412.0k 20% /mnt/initfs/tmp /dev/mmcblk0p2 3.1G 273.6M 2.7G 9% / none 512.0k 100.0k 412.0k 20% /tmp none 1.0M 68.0k 956.0k 7% /dev tmpfs 1.0M 0 1.0M 0% /dev/shm /dev/mmcblk1p1 15.4G 447.7M 15.0G 3% /media/mmc1 /dev/mmcblk0p1 4.0G 12.0k 4.0G 0% /media/mmc2
(THIS IS NORMAL)
