Wouldn't have helped much, lots of things got saved right where they were, either because the program defaulted to saving int he install folder, or because i was creating the file in some unusual way.
That would probably never have happend on a linux system. Why install a program in /etc/ when it choses correct path for you?

I mentioned partition as in.. making the partition for programs bigger on the n900. On a normal Linux system you don't have to bother about this. My Ubuntu machine uses 6Gb of a 10Gb root partition. The rest of the HDD goes to my /home/ partition.
