My NC has all of this on the /mnt/sdcard
How can I get it to use the internal /media or /data partition for all of this and JUST use the sdcard for my media (music and videos)?
I am running CM7.10 stable.
One thought is to have it mount the partition normally used for /media to the /sdcard mountpoint, and then mount the sdcard as something else (probably not /media, but maybe). This way apps that want to use /sdcard will use the internal memory partition formerly known as "/media" for their storage, and the actual sdcard will be reserved for only media. Alternately if the NC will not run without a /media that can be used by B&N, maybe just repartition it so that you have the 5GB /media partition split into 1GB /media and the remaining 4GB /sdcard, then mount the actual SD card on another mountpoint.
I guess this really is a question about how flexible the NC/CM7/Android filesystem layout is, and whether it can support something that makes the actual SD card a cleaner portable storage device.
