First of all: You might want to remove your email address to not get spammed all over the place.

May be your data partition's file system has been corrupted.
Please open the X-Terminal command and run a couple of commands. Please try to copy and paste the command to avoid typing errors, also try to copy and paste the output for best possible support.
Do you have rootsh or some other application installed to gain the rights of 'root'-user?

Please run these commands:

Re: my Nokia N900 low memory to app install and 32 GB only shows 3.7Gb error how to solve this. i use recovery-tools test disk app then nothing happened. please help me and mail
 

Looks weird. You may want to educate us about the last steps you did to get to that state.

These are the things i could single out until now:
1. Missing optfs: Basically your file systems seem to be alright, but /dev/mmcblk0p2 is missing completely. This causes the problems of no space to install applications.
2. Your MyDocs partition is only 3.7GB and empty, no files on it.

You better remember what you did lately to try to undo things. And you should try to describe what you hope to setup back to working condition.

Please post the output of The first commands are to check for the health of the internal sd-card. The latter comands are to check for hidden files behind the Mydocs mount point that fill up the rootfs for no obvious reason.
Testdisk is a fine tool to recover files from lost partitions. Best used on unmounted partitions, did you use it while the MyDocs partition was unmounted???

Again, it looks like your MyDocs partition in use is a freshly formatted one.

I have problems with my device too, ""Memory card format unsupported"" . Your code it s ok? for me dont work :( but you wrote sfdisk -l /dev/mmcblk0 it s oK? mmcblk0 ? I cannot flashing emmc :( only rootfs I can flashing.

May be the issues of your N900 may be better discussed in a separate thread to get full attention. There are no answer and feedback here anywhere to be found.

Back to your questions: So what is the output of the command There are only small 'L', no decimal 'one', in the command.

remove all apps
install backupmenu
run a live gparted
reseize or not partitions(home must divide to 1024)
format home(ext3 or 4) and MyDocs & sd(if you have problems with it)
reflash firmware
and this is it

Why is that? I have certainly resized my partitions but did not care about rounding to MB. Instead, I tried to round to cylinders to shut up sfdisk. But I can confirm that totally random sizes worked just fine.

how many partitions do you have? how many programs installed? i like the rounding thing , it's sounds better , and neither i have encountered problems with sfdisk because of size(corrupted /home because fapman is another story = 4 coruptions with ext3 an none yet with ext4 , let's hope it stays like this)

Re: my Nokia N900 low memory to app install and 32 GB only shows 3.7Gb error how to solve this. i use recovery-tools test disk app then nothing happened. please help me and mail
 

sfdisk whinges when partitions do not end on cylinder boundaries, that's all. I have two working devices ATM, both having three partitions. One is stock, the other with 4GB ext4 /home.

But let's stop derailing this thread, shall we? We are waiting for OP's feedback.
