I don't think you're going to get much better than 63%.

Nope, that's about as good as it gets.

And yes, installing that way resets your system.

Uninstall those apps and stick to ones from extras or the Nokia repos, they should only take up a tiny bit of rootfs memory.

DISCLAIMER: DON'T PASTE ANYTHING TO XTERM UNLESS YOU KNOW WHAT YOU ARE DOING!!!!

sudo gainroot
rm ****

will fix the problem. after that you have 100% free in your rootfs.
e: and you have just "bricked" your device btw


or just remove unoptified apps....

Bit too slow, but better now than never I can see that some old users are starting to get bit uptight answering same questions again and again.

ossipena,
This excatly what's going to happen to this community if you are not ready. This is just first wave of people coming here and asking again and again and again same questions which you think that should be obvious to them.

Be prepared for loads of "stupid" people as some of you call some new users.

As a Stupid Person myself, I can understand. We probably need to be slicker about getting a FAQ up and doing when these things hit the fan. It will happen all over again with the next one, too.

Maybe the Council could ask Nokia for a warning before they push out an update to give the Clever People time to write something?

"easy" is subjective .

If you are comfortable with the command line, the following command will list all the files installed by the package.:
Code:
dpkg -L packagename
If you see '/opt' in any of the files the package is optified.
