Sorry to be so vague.

I did have virtual memory on but that was not the problem.

I typed DF and got:

Nokia-N810-43-7:~# df

I had a file that was 1.1 gig on the card (debian image file) I moved it to the external slot and then I was left with around 500mb. So I think that I have lost just over 500mb's what do you think?
