I had the same problem, just remove all applications larger than 1mb (or just all except Maemo 5 ofcourse ) and it works, it's updating now.

Still thinks it's a flaw in Nokia's software it doesn't mention you need more memory on the device.

Good luck all, and have fun with your N900!

The same to you (Good luck and have fun!). And I say the same, this should work regardless of what installed on the device. Pisses me off.

And I prefer not using any command line flashers or strange workaround procedures. This should work using nokia's main upgrade software intended for any customer.
I was not being ironic.

Good to see there are more people with this problem!

I hope it wil be solved soon!

Thanks, the same wishes to you! Good it worked out for you

I can't delete my apps through the app manager, there must be a way to delete them through xterminal, right?

Ok, sorry then if I jumped you Tymo!

BTW, I have soon uninstalled nearly everything now, I have over 70MB of rootfs and still no go with the Nokia Software Updater.
This is just so lame. I am a software developer myself since over 20 years back, and rarely I've seen such badly tested, documented and supported device upgrade software like this.

Not onlt that, the NSU PC app. doesn't work either. It stops at 33.6 MB every time with a message that appears to be quite unrelated.

It's okay, Lars!

How weird, how sad, hearing someone saying that, someone who has 20 years of expertise. Wow. I still hope for a solution.
I'm gonna give it a try again! I'll keep you up to date!
