Hi there.
None of my apps will run.
I did get a error during the extraction process:
Here is what happen >>>
Nokia-N810-43-7:/media/mmc2# tar -xjvf debian-chroot-img-final.tar.bz2
debian-final.img.ext2
bzip2: I/O or other error, bailing out. Possible reason follows.
bzip2: Input/output error
Input file = (stdin), output file = (stdout)tar: Unexpected EOF in archive
tar: Unexpected EOF in archive
tar: Error is not recoverable: exiting now
Nokia-N810-43-7:/media/mmc2#
None of my apps will run.

This will make a cache directory on your MMC card (you can change mmc1 to mmc2 if you want) and then tells Debian to use that to store all of the downloaded packages.Code:mkdir -p /media/mmc1/apt-archives/partial sudo mount -o bind /media/mmc1/apt-archives /debian/var/cache/apt/archives
/usr/share/doc/
/usr/share/info/
/usr/share/zoneinfo/
/usr/share/locale/
/var/cache/apt/*.bin (just the .bin files)
This, in my case, can give me back 80+ MB of space and space has been the major concern for me in Easy Debian Turbo as I'm not an advanced user to start with empty image file. So, I was wondering if I can delete files and folders from the above mentioned directories without affecting the update, upgrade or install in the future or some way I can mount these to MMC like in the case of mounting /var/cache/apt/archives to MMC as you have mentioned as I have 8GB card and I'm only using 1.1GB of it. Also, is there any other unwanted files residing in the file system which I can get rid of to make more space? Thank you.

You can probably safely delete the files from the first three, not so sure about the other two. Your locales shouldn't be a huge issue if you installed localepurge as indicated in my previous posts.
Make sure you've done an "apt-get clean" then do the MMC mount of the apt archives folder. You'll probably have to do an "apt-get -f install" or something to finish your broken install.
The best idea is always just deleting packages you don't use a lot.

Btw, as I was successful to do the upgrade, it has caused me one problem, now while opening Synaptic Package Manager it asks me for password but I haven't set any password at all. So how can I make it stop asking for one? Thank you.

ADDED: Also, iceweasel and kazehakase browsers keeps closing often while trying to search or hit link etc. Is this normal? and why is xvkbd keeps printing the same character multiple times unless you click somewhere else?
