Greetings, and let me add to the chorus of thank you's to Wolfram and others who are making the 770 even more functional. This reminds me of the early days of the Palm Pilot, except the 770 is just a bit more powerful.

I did the partition (1GB Sandisk), using 64mb as ext2 and the rest for ext3. I moved the swapfile and altered the start/stop scripts to have swap-on always on.

This worked great, but this morning I tried to save a note to the documents file, and I kept getting "file is read only". I was able to save to the mmc. I then checked the home directory via a USB cable, and changed all the permissions to give total access. I rebooted and was then able to save to the documents folder.

However, for some reason this blitzed by news reader, erased the connection settings, web home page, bookmarks and URL history. I will have to go to backup to restore those, but it is disturbing this happened. Was it because I used the USB to access the 770 file system? I do have a card reader, but the USB cable is the easiest.

Any clue as to what has happened? The 770 is SO much better the the efs!

One other question - I am debating whether to keep the swap file on ext3. As mentioned, I have altered the start/stop scripts. I am a Linux rookie, how do I return those scripts back to the original state to stop using the swap transfer?
