Yet another (re)mount tool kernel plugin for PS Vita/PS TV. From Vita Hacks Guide:

"YAMT (Yet Another Mount Tool) is a multi-purpose kernel plugin for the PS Vita (TV) which allows for the use of a microSD card as a storage device via an SD2Vita adapter. The SD2Vita is a microSD to game card adapter which is inserted into the game-card slot in your device.

By using the YAMT kernel plugin, the USB drive or microSD card you use will be mounted to ux0: just like a Sony memory card. This is very useful because microSD cards are significantly cheaper than Sony memory cards (especially at higher capacities)."

Features

• Ability to remount all partitions.
• Clean sd2vita patch system.
• No boot delays as found in i.e gamecard-microsd.
• Basic & noob-friendly gui manager included.

Installation

Please follow Vita Hacks Guide for the setup guide.

Notes:

• Lite version is intended for normal users, it provides basic mounting and format options.
• Full version is recommended for advanced users, it packs all the important storage managing tools.

User guide

Basic:

• Just use the menu in Settings > Devices > Storage Devices.

Advanced:

• You can remount every partition with yamt.
• Developer options in driver settings provide some useful storage functions like formatting.
• In the "Custom partitions" tab you have all the partitions listed excluding pseudo partitions like lma0.
• You can edit the assignements of the listed partitions, take a look at https://wiki.henkaku.xyz/vita/SceIofilemgr#Mount_Points.
• i.e if you set sa0 to [ext; act; entire] it will bind sa0 to the sd2vita's main partition at boot.

Uninstall:

• You can uninstall YAMT via the provided installer.
• It is recommended to clean up the tai config.txt after uninstalling yamt.

Notes:

• You can format the SD/USB to TexFAT from the developer options menu in the driver settings tab.
• If the USB/PSVSD mount fails, setting legacy mode in driver settings may help.
• Before updating from a beta release, use enso's "fix boot configuration".
• The project is still WIP, report all bugs.
