If you want to update your system, you can try the trick I mentioned above. First, from inside Debian chroot, issue an "apt-get clean" command. Then, from a root maemo prompt (or add "sudo" in front of the mount command):

Code:

mkdir -p /media/mmc1/debian-apt-archives/partial
mount -o bind /media/mmc1/debian-apt-archives /debian/var/cache/apt/archives

Note the /media/mmc1/debian-apt-archives path can be anything you want, as long as there is enough space there (50-100 MB).

Then, from inside the Debian chroot, you can issue an "apt-get upgrade" and all should be well.
