Beat you to it

Hahaha, that's why I merged the post!
But I have a small log and screen!

[dogward]

Damn thing.. I'm still unable to install... Not enough space on root... I guess I installed too much extra-dev stuff...


Have you been able to install it allready ?

EDIT: I've managed to update, but phone is painfully slow. I'm doing a hard-reset and try everything again from a brand new installation.

[ROLAN900D]

No, smooth on my end...
But I had to disable almost all categories to get it installed OTA!

That rootfs is so lame and tiny!!!

[dogward]

I'm still on re-flashing... I had problems with Win 7 x86 and x64, I've downloaded a live linux distro, I'll try flashing from there. Hopefully it will work better.

And yes, rootfs is way too tiny.

Quick update :
Yep, I've reflashed my n900 with a brand new 3.2010.02-8 image... Much snapier and faster than ever before... It was worth it.

Now trying to find the 3.2010.02 improvements

BTW : nothing new on Ovi Maps :@

C'mon guys, footfs isn't that small!

And btw, i saw someone talking about swaping footfs with SWAP, so that root would get 2Gb and SWAP 250Mb.. But, don't remember where..

Well, that I want!

I reflashed and only have 3 games on it.
All ready 86% used from rootfs

So that tweak would be really handy
