Try it without the sudo gainroot first, don't think you need to be root to do this
Mine looks like this:
ITEM_NAME="Android (external SD, partition 2)"
ITEM_ID="android3"
ITEM_DEVICE="${EXT_CARD}p2"
ITEM_MODULES="mbcache jbd ext3 fat vfat"
ITEM_FSTYPE="ext3"
ITEM_FSOPTIONS="noatime,rw"

Thanks for your help with this issue, Dousan....

My file was named 'android.ext.item' and my file looked like this:

ITEM_NAME="Android (MicroSD, partition 2)"
ITEM_ID="android3"
ITEM_DEVICE="${EXT_CARD}p2"
ITEM_MODULES="mbcache jbd ext3 fat vfat"
ITEM_FSTYPE="ext3"
ITEM_FSOPTIONS="noatime,rw"[/QUOTE]

I changed first line to match yours, but after rebooting, I get error message:

get bootstate: mounting mmcblk0p2
on /mnt/new_root failed: No such device
command exited with non-zero status 255
real 0m 0.04s
user 0m 0.00s
sys 0m 0.00s

get bootstate: Invalid selection
choose bootup option:
2) mmc
9) start a shell


I do get the proper boot selection screen before this happens and select Android...

Any suggestions?
