Will the first bot after choosing ART take some extra time? How can I tell if it's stuck in a bootloop rather than just booting slowly?

I have installed Cyanogen mod11 CR4 on my htc explorer.
Also I have increased my internal memory via partitioning the sd card and merging it with internal memory.
When I installed Whatsapp. It is not creating its folders (of conversations, images, videos). Due to this, I cannot download or upload images. Also it is not allowing to back up conversation.
Can anyone help me in this regard?
Thank you.

There might be similar questions. I don't want to open those old question.
This is what I have done:
* I have rooted my phone.
* I have installed Link2SD.
It was working good. Suddenly I started to get interal storage full warning.
I uninstalled apps one by one. I got some space in internal storage. I got about 80MB. I should get 150MB. Anyway, I am now installing apps one by one. Whenever I install an app, the internal storage is going low. Once I moved the app using Link2SD, I am getting some space.
But the problem is, I am not getting the same amount of space. So if I install few more apps, the internal storage will surely go down and i will get warnings.
What is the best solution to keep the apps in SD card? So I can keep good internal memory.

How can I symlink the /cache folder on boot?

After rooting and installing link2sd on my **HTC Explorer**, I still have low memory issues.
On Google Play, I can't download apps larger than 10-15M. This is because the /cache folder is in the internal memory, which is desperately small. In my version, Google Play writes directly in /cache, not in subfolders.
Using adb as root, I deleted
/cache and created a symlink /cache -> /mnt/sdcard/cache.
This is fine, but when I reboot the phone the symlink is replaced by the old folder.
Is there a proper way to solve this issue once and for all?
Thanks for any hint,
A

System updates are available. When I am tapping to that message it is showing some 29 MB updates. I am running sort of internal memory, so every-time I am postponing the updates to later(I think it will consume 29 MB internal memory). Is this true that on installing the updates will consume internal memory? I am using HTC explorer having gingerbread(2.3) version of Android.
