Default Anybody using "Save Apps to SD" fix via Terminal?
Is there anyone here who has run the commands to move app storage/execution to the SD card via the terminal apps/telnet to root?

Please let us know results, and source of commands if you did not use these:


/usr/local/apps/

So you have like

/usr/local/apps/breadcrumbz.apk
/usr/local/apps/opera.apk
/usr/local/apps/...

You would just open up the terminal (which I've heard alot about and am very excited about having linux shell access on my phone!) and enter...

~ $ mv /usr/local/apps /sdcard/
~ $ mount --bind /sdcard/apps /usr/local/apps
~ $ echo /sdcard/apps /usr/local/apps bind defaults 0 0 >> /etc/fstab

And BAM you just moved all your apps to the storage card and set it up so that whenever android accesses or writes to /usr/local/apps it's writing to the storage card. The power of linux haha.
