adb shell
cat /proc/partitions

Post ouput...

sd-ext is not the sdcard, it will be either /sdcard or /mnt/extern_sd

Here you go:
~ # cat /proc/partitions
cat /proc/partitions
major minor #blocks name

Right, I'm trying to mount the external sd with:
mount -o remount,rw -t vfat /mnt/extern_sd
I had no idea what the type needed to be so went with vfat (not even sure if it's a valid type). I get:
Usage: mount [-r] [-w] [-o options] [-t type] device directory
so I'm guessing it's not, I've tried:
mount -o remount,rw /mnt/extern_sd
but I get:
Usage: mount [-r] [-w] [-o options] [-t type] device directory
which I assume means that I need a type.
I can see the extern_sd in /mnt/ but if I enter it and do an ls then I get an empty directory, despite the fact that there's an .img file in there.

ive read this thread a couple of times and am confused as to where youre at with the excel what firmware are you running and what you trying to do with the removable card?

[strangelad]

Right, so I'm fairly sure it's the version of busybox that's screwing it up, I need to push a new version up over the old one, can anyone recommend a binary that works?

[Mitre]

v1.18.3 and v1.17.1 are known to work
dont use any from stericsson

Morning,

I was running a stock install of Excel 2.3 (model 53715, the 3D one), went to install CWM 5.0.2.7 and couldn't get past the balloon. I checked that I wasn't running Stericcson:
BusyBox v1.18.3 (2011-02-23 23:09:23 EST) multi-call binary.

and others. Licensed under GPLv2.
I've been trawling through your and Charlies thread on Stock Excel Images/Stericsson install (viewtopic.php?f=48&t=1978&start=140) to see if I can recover from there and so far it was going fairly well, I'd copied over the excel_cleanCWM5 to see if I could restore it. I went into CWM and did a restore from the insternal sd by mistake, I've now got:
BusyBox v1.19.3-cm7 static (2011-11-14 14:16 +0100) multi-call binary.
Quite how I managed that I don't know as I installed 18.3, unless there was already a busybox on the excel and it was an old backup.
Anyway, I've decided that the way forward is to overwrite the Busybox, do you have a link to a binary please? Thanks.

[Mitre]

i havent got a link as it is pre installed on the excel in /system/bin you will have to google for a mirror but be carefull what one you get stericsons a no go

You shouldn't need to symlink, just make sure the permissions are 644 (read and execute)
