[Angstrom-distro-users] Installing applications to an SD card

[John Walker]

Yes I liked having the full 121 MB for / root in pdaXrom.

But I am also trying to suss out installing onto SD where I have 2GB;  
some instructions in that regard would be useful in the wiki,  
especially as I am able to address larger size SD cards with Angstrom  
than I could with pdaXrom.
