/media/sdcard/ is a symlink to /run/media/nemo most applications should just work without changes.

For those that don't a bind mount will solve the problem, you need the dev mode for this tough. While this should be safe it might brake in "interesting" ways, especially when updating sailfish. One therefore must revert this change before installing any sailfish updates. It should not break anything that could not be fixed by a factory reset tough.

All steps must be executed as root.

1. run mv /media/sdcard /media/sdcard_backup
   • Note: No trailing slashes!
2. run mkdir sdcard
3. add /run/media/nemo/ /media/sdcard/ none defaults,bind 0 0 to the end of /etc/fstab
   • Don't do anything else in this file if you like to have a working phone.
4. run mount /media/sdcard or reboot

If you wan't to revert it you can do this:

1. remove the added line from /etc/fstab
2. reboot
3. run rmdir /media/sdcard
4. run mv /media/sdcard_backup /media/sdcard

Again: I quickly tested this and it seems to work without problems, but it break things or cause you to have a nice phone shaped (soft) brick.
