i am using windows xp professional and pr 1.3 and i did not install any app after i couldnt install rootsh ( wich i just wanted to increase my root partition not to mod it or somethin ) i tried installing a theme but still the same message. i am aware of the hazards when going root and installing non nokia software ( thats why i didnt do that ) ,and i saved the files in maemo/flasher-3.5 and did not make typos because i renamed the files so it couldnt be. i also know this is not a nokia helpdesk but since the people in the helpdesk and in the store dont even know how a n900 looks like i thought i could give it a shot here finall i read the threads on flashing the device i followed every stepp paying close attention and not making any typing errors but still get the message. AND the n900 is my primary device ( brand new ) and i don't want to send it back already after owning it for like 4 days

You can probably try to go root/main dir(cd /) and then run command:
du -k | sort -nr | more

It list directories starting from biggest one. Probably gives some errors that you are not root user but at least should give you some hints about biggest dirs in your system. Could take awhile to execute.

.edit
Ant that flash guide is here:

For a start, how about not screwing with file names, you're just asking for trouble and no one will have any idea what your going on about.

Follow the Wiki EXACTLY!

How hard is that?!

Without rootsh this is unsolvable, you need to copy /var/apt/cache to /home/cache and link it back but you will need root privileges.

whats the output of?:
Code:
sudo apt-get install rootsh

0.o trying to go sudo without rootsh installed yet? That's odd...

Well with the device filled to capacity, and you do not want to contact customer care for what reason ever, i think, your best shot is to get rid of some installed applications through application manager.
It also cleans the cache. Then again try to get rootsh installed to really start setting things straight.
