This script will move the apt's metadata (lists) and database (cache) from their canonical locations (/var/lib/apt and /var/cache/apt) into the /home partition

rename the file move-apt-dirs.txt -> move-apt-dirs.sh

use ssh open server and copy the file to your N900 in "/" (not in "/root" !!)

in xterminal type:

sudo gainroot
sh move-apt-dirs.sh
