Using some symlink solution practically tripled my available rootfs space. Might stop the next update from complaining again.
Well, at least it's not Android where the default option on even a minor OS upgrade wants to wipe all your installed apps among other things.

Hi guys, really I don't understand...
I had problem to upgrade maemo because of few free memory in rootfs so:
1) I followed advices here http://wiki.maemo.org/Free_up_rootfs_space
2) I removed ALL apps
3) I deleted all repos with not optified apps (eg. maemo extras/devel and /testing..)
4) I reinstalled apps only from apps-optified repos
5) I used rewt's script page1 - #10 to see not optified apps in my rootfs
This is my actual situation:
from storageusage:
a) rootfs 67mb free on 227.9 used
b) from rewt's script:

Code:
adblock-plus-1.0 not optified
cellmo-watch not optified
decoders-support not optified
fiasco-flasher not optified
fm-boost not optified
gstreamer0.10-flac not optified
gstreamer0.10-flv not optified
gstreamer0.10-mkv not optified
gstreamer0.10-musepack not optified
gstreamer0.10-ogg not optified
gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad-extra not optified
gstreamer0.10-rm not optified
gstreamer0.10-theora not optified
gstreamer0.10-vorbis not optified
hildon-desktop-python-loader not optified
isa-utils not optified
libart-2.0-2 not optified
libflac8 not optified
libgnomecanvas2-0 not optified
libgnomecanvas2-common not optified
libgnomeprint2.2-0 not optified
libgnomeprint2.2-data not optified
libogg0 not optified
libpoppler2 not optified
libqt4-phonon not optified
libtheora0 not optified
libvorbis0a not optified
libvorbisenc2 not optified
libvorbisfile3 not optified
libwildmidi0 not optified
n900-fmrx-enabler not optified
ogg-support not optified
poppler-utils not optified
powertop not optified
pymaemo-optify not optified
python not optified
python-all not optified
python-central not optified
python-minimal not optified
rootsh not optified
sharing-fmms not optified
tracker-distutils not optified
tracker-extractor-vorbis not optified
wget not optified
wifi-switcher not optified
xournal not optified
Really I don't understand...
1) it's normal 67mb rootfs free?
2) why so much not optified apps?
3) why apps I installed from apps-optified repos, like xournal, rewt's script tells me as not optified?
4) why pyton if I've /opt/pymaemo?

That's not too bad.

Some of the packages exist only to pull in other packages, and don't install any files (such as python-all), so there is nothing to optify. In some cases, it's just not possible to easily optify (without make a symlink mess), such as with gstreamer packages. My script reports packages as not optified if they do not install at least a single file in /opt.

There is no guarantee anything from Nokia official repos, extras (non-testing/non-devel), or the Ovi store will be optified. The majority of the non-system packages that can be safely/easily optified are, however.

The pymaemo-optify package relocates certain python related directories to /opt, which my script will recognize. The python packages that are listed (python, python-all, python-central, python-minimal) do not install any files in either /opt or in the specific python directories that pymaemo-optify relocates, so it reports them as not optified (which is true).

How do you exactly run these scripts. I just get permission denied.

ps. I have access to root via sudo gainroot

Make sure you are in the folder where the script is by using cd /folder/folder/ (In X-Terminal)
Then run
Code:
./scriptname.sh
So the example in the wiki is:
Code:
./move-to-opt.sh
If you are not in the directory where the script is you can run
Code:
/folder/folder/move-to-opt.sh

The other thing to note is that if you've installed the scripts onto a VFAT file system (/media/mmc1 or /home/user/MyDocs) then you'll need to use "sh scriptname.sh" instead.

Im now using OpenSSH and it seems to work better, if im correct.
There is also something wrong with my copypaste, it messes the scripts.

x-term is now doing something...and im propably going to report my future reflash of my device here .


edit:... Okay no need for reflash . now i have 80mb of free space at the rootfs. Nice!!
