Ok, I'm wondering some info about DT's A2SD. First off, what roms work with it? I tried I believe stock, and Shabby's Full #9 and Slim #8 and the GUI app is saying either card isn't partitioned (it is), not rooted (I am) or scripts aren't installed (no idea how to check). So I'm wondering, what do I do to get this to work.....

Next up, I'm wondering, what is the difference. I know there's supposedly a performance increase. I'm not seeing any difference in performance after moving apps to SD using Link2SD I believe the app is called. The problem I'm facing is that even though my apps are being moved, there's still about 1/2 the space being used on my device. Looks like maybe the library files. Will DT's A2SD move ALL of it? Is there any other way to move the whole thing (or using sym links to have all apps installed to SD?). I'm coming from a Droid Incredible, and never had space issues (it's like a 1.5gig partition for apps internally). I'm having trouble even getting 1/2 my apps from my other phone onto my new phone.....
