[PORT][MULTIBOOT][RECOVERY]Tasssadar's MultiROM for the Optimus V

does something similar from the user end.
it bind-mounts /system, /data, and /cache from the backup in multirom's directory on the sd-ext partition on boot instead of mounting them from internal.

Wait, ext is involved? I thought this was to have virtually everything on SD card? Meaning all of my phone is running completely from the card..

Edit: Trying it anyway, will post results.

sd-ext is the card. it's the 2nd partition, usually ext2 or ext4. everything runs from there except the initial boot process from internal boot.img

Aha, see I was thinking there was a way to install and run a rom completely on the sdcard (first partition, fat32), thus eliminating the worry of running out of ext space, because the entire phone except one thing is stored on card. I have a 32gb sdcard class 4 with 1.5gb (ext4) sd-ext and Cronmod's INT2EXT+ currently installed, which basically does what Link2SD does, plus /data I hear.

When I say sdcard, I mean the first partition, where the DCIM folder is and stuff.
When I say ext or sd-ext, I mean the second partition.

there is a way to loop-mount a file image of the ext system from /sdcard instead of seperate partitions.
it's not currently implemented in multirom and would be tricky in os2sd. you'd have to script it.
