Install ext3fs with Meta-Doctor
You can use Meta-Doctor to create a ext3 fs carved out of the space that is used for the vfat LVM partition.
The Option is:
ADD_EXT3FS_PARTITION
With that option you can specify the size of the partition
ADD_EXT3FS_PARTITION = 2GB
for a 2GB partition.
When you Doctor the phone you will have a partition that is located at
/media/ext3fs
on device /store/ext3fs (lvm partition)
Loop mount a partition on existing partitions
It is NOT recommended that you loop mount on top of a vfat partition (unless you use a fuseFS) because of attribute issues.
With Meta-Doctor you can increase the size of the /Var partition as well
The Option is:
INCREASE_VAR_SPACE = 1
It increases the size of /var to 2GB
Realize that you will be vying for space with any Preware apps, emails, and attachments.
