/sdcard is the internal storage.

/extsdcard is the external SDcard.

Flash mem plugged into the USB ports will show up at
/usb0
or
/usb1

If you've noticed, there is also a /intstorage. It is and isn't internal storage. It contains the image file that is mounted at /sdcard as the internal storage.


So, where the Android menus describe "Internal Storage" it means /sdcard and
where they refer to "SDCard" it means /extsdcard.


Also, I found busybox on the system. I don't know if Android or something else I installed provided it (Better Terminal Emulator, perhaps?) Busybox provides many of the usual commands we expect in linux. So, one way or another, installing BTE gives you access to busybox, so you can root around more effectively. (That was rather pun-ish ;-)
