Im in the UK and just got the update.

After reading 11 pages of this topic I have no idea what anyone is talking about, clearing ROOTFS and all sorts lol

i just clicked download, install and it was done!!!

I gather people think a big update is coming from Nokia and this is why the UK got the 'pre update' as im gonna call it

What can we expect from Nokia on the big one then?

Hello, not done this sort of thing before, but I have the same problem. How do I "apt-get upgrade" as root?! Is that in x-terminal or some other program?

Thanks in advance!

It said errors were encountered while processing:

E:sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)

No update for me either. London based sim-free device on O2.
have run apt-get clean autoclean autoremove update, plenty of room on rootfs.
Currently using 2.2009.51-1.205.1
My Nokia System Software Updates repo address is https://downloads.maemo.nokia.com/fremantle/ssu/205

Can someone confirm this as correct? New to Nokia/n900, Linux user since 2004?

TIA
