you can't make system links on FAT fialsystems.

sudo gainroot
umount /home/user/MyDocs
mkfs.ext3 -m 3 /dev/mmcblk0p1
mount /home/user/MyDocs

Well ya I would think it would help video too.

Because of the program playing the video is running on the same MMC as the video. Not to mention like evrything ells.

The bigest bottle neck I see on this device is the dunb flash eMMC. Sure it CAN read at like 20MB/s and write at owe.. 15MB/s (not that that is realy fast) However, Not randomly. Random read/write is more like 5MB/s by <1MB/s

The more stuff you can fugure out how to split it's IO accross both eMMC and SD the better.
works really good.. but you have to consider, if you do this there will be 2 major disantvantages:

1. you can't mount your home partition in windows anymore (possible you can install some ext3 driver)

2. the maemo intern filebrowser will not read the Mydocs partition anymore so you have to use a replacement ( filebox for example)
