I'm running out of space on my PE. I can't even install apps on my PE.

So I downloaded the minitool and partitioned my 32 G card 50% fat32 and 50% ext3. Do I make both primary? I only made the FAT32 primary and when I put the microSD card in, it doesn't recognize it. I try to format it but it fails to do that.

I'll try both as primary and see what happens. If anyone can guess what I'm doing wrong, please let me know!

And should I give preference to the fat32 or ext3 partition in terms of allocation (should I allocate more for ext3)?

Also, are you guys changing the setting for "Data Storage device"? If you change it to SD, you can never go back. I don't really have a grasp of what it really does.
