How can I do?

Thanks

The hard way:



You need root and same as 3C Toolbox

Have a SD card, formatted in Ext4.



Run at start:

mount  -t ext4 /dev/block/mmcblk1p1 /data/extSDcard

mount -o bind /data/extSDcard/oruxmaps  /storage/sdcard0/oruxmaps



Where is:

/dev/block/mmcblk1p1 - you SD card. Find it in a filemanager.

/data/extSDcard - mount point for SD card (create directory). Use /data to avoid a rights and a letter register troubles.

/data/extSDcard/oruxmaps - directory for OruxMaps on SD card

/storage/sdcard0/oruxmaps - exist OruxMaps directory on device storage

Use "mount -o bind" for save data in original OruxMaps directory. Without CD card it will be used.



On 3C Toolbox create a script (Tools -> Script Editor) with 2 string above.

Mark script as start in boot. (First button on script list).
