i know this has been asked a thousand times, but i can't find the answer after 2 days searching...
i'm using milestone 1, i flashed latest cm7 rom following a tutorial here, version number CyanogenMod 7.0.1 0.08-11.04.24 (Android 2.3.3) , yes i know that i need ext2/3/4 partition on my sdcard. so i createdd one fat32 5gig primary partition and one 2gig ext3 primary partition.
later i installed around 80 apps , if i open root explorer, i see in /sd-ext folder, 251mb used, 1.60g free , i know this indicates that app2ext is working (according to some reply in that really long cm7 thread)
but if i come to the manage applications menu which comes with android, on the downloaded tab, it stills shows that 96mb used, 101mb free for the internal storage. is this normal ? will i get the low storage space warning in the future if i install more apps ? ( all the apps are in internal storage, the on sdcard tab shows all app is not in sdcard. i set default installation path to internal storage in cw setting , some apps still install themself to sdcard however, but i manually move them back by pressing the move to phone button.)
oh and i saw some tutorials saying i need to type some mysterious command in console in OR, so i can move and link some folders to ext partition, say /data/dalvik_cache and some other folders. do i need to do this for cm7 mod i'm using?
thanks if someone could show me the correct direction. I'm totally confused by the massive amount tutorials.
