What am i doing wrong? Ive partitioned my 2 gb (1.9 gb) in these:

896 for the first FAT partition (I guess this is the space where i can store files from my computer, docs, music etc, but not very usuable since it is less tha a GB)

512 for the Second FAT partition ( I think this is the SWAP partition, as i know this is the space that is used for running a lot of apps ath the same time)

512 for the Linux partition ( i dont know what this is for)

so please, can someone help me understand what am i doing wrogn or simply whats the partitions for? Im only doing this because i want a lot of space so i can install more apps and i want it to be more fast.

Thank you
Yes, this will occaisonally happen, I would suggest first trying to reintall bootmenu, or just start the whole process over again.

The partition FAT (this is /media/mmc1 or mmc2) This is the disk that is shared if you plug in a usb cable to windows.

The second FAT partition is a error in my copying scripts, its actuall the SWAP partition size

The third partition is the one the Flash will be cloned to
