Only 63.2gb.
I have ONLY 9.5gb Mydock.

Is there any way to move installed applications space to user space because I dont need 4gb for applications.

@mcbook patririon table have different size. ext4 should contain many permissions and other flags, control over links and symlinks and many other stuff

Thanks but maybe I should stop here - due to my too little knowledge!
On Desire I expand a very little internal memory (250MB) with 1GB ext4 to SD-card and get by that also a faster device.

But with N9 that's not the problem and I even don't know if my N9 will become faster by 4ext?

it won't get faster but you get symlinks and no 4gb file size limitation

Not to forget the journal. Same as NTFS, by the way. FAT is very simple. Which has its advantages[1] but also disadvantages.

----------
[1] I once tried installing Windows XP on my other half's netbook, known for its very slow SSD. It was unusable. Disabling paging, caching and other disk writes improved responsiveness slightly (10-20%) but a real boost (about 1,000%) came from reformatting the SSD from NTFS to FAT. (Eventually we ended up rolling back to Linux anyway )
