Hey, after pulling my n900 out of hibernation for a few months, i decided to charge it up and have a play. however when i tried to install the updates, i got the infamous insufficient memory message (despite having more than 100mb free).


I decided to follow the wiki and clear some things out but i keep getting this error message in terminal.

Code:

Anybody got any advice ?

Try to do this
root
apt-get autoclean
apt-get autoremove
apt-get purge

Use additionally to the commands @sourav.dubey gave you above first
Code:
sudo gainroot
mkdir /usr/share/doc/libmikmod2
mkdir /usr/share/doc/libsmpeg0
This is the workaround for those packages, that had their documentation stripped to occupy less space in rootfs, but have the optification still looking for this directory to move to /opt also.

I followed the instructions but im still getting the errors. I tried to update a single application (20kb) with over 100mb free but i was still told that i lack memory.

whatever application you are trying to install, could you pls try
Code:
root
apt-get update
apt-cache search {some key word for the app}
{package} - some description
apt-get install {package}
and post the output of the apt-get commands?

Where is your free memory?
On MyDocs or on /home or on rootfs?
Type
df
in x-term and confirm, there is enough free space on rootfs.

If nothing helps, then get FAP (oops, okay download and install manually via dpkg -i app_name).

Would apt-get install upgrade do the trick ?

the problem as I see it is that the mkdir commands given by michaaa62 have not been followed; follow them before doing apt-get autoremove

Your optfs partition is filled to capacity, the last space will not get used, except for crucial /tmp /var purposes of the OS. Free some space in /home. Please try to get some output for debugging
Code:
sudo gainroot 
umount /dev/mmcblk0p1
du -kx /home | sort -n | tail -n 100
This will give you a list of the 100 largest folders in /home and in /opt, which actually is /home/opt. Check if you need all that stuff and remove the unneeded.

Alternatively you might consider the repartition of the flash according to that wiki article http://wiki.maemo.org/Repartitioning_the_flash
