Free up rootfs space

YMMV...


here are most lines...

Code:

rm /var/lib/dpkg/*old
mv /usr/share/nokia-maps /home/opt/
ln -s /home/opt/nokia-maps /usr/share/nokia-maps
mv /usr/share/microb-engine /home/opt
ln -s /home/opt/microb-engine /usr/share/microb-engine
mv /usr/share/fonts /home/opt 
ln -s /home/opt/fonts /usr/share/fonts
mv /usr/share/locale /opt
ln -s /opt/locale /usr/share/locale
mv /usr/share/themes/ /home/opt/usr/share/themes
ln -s /home/opt/usr/share/themes /usr/share/themes
dpkg --purge tutorial-home-applet 
dpkg -l|grep ^rc

last command has been rewritten by Joseph9560 as

Code:

dpkg -l | grep ^rc | cut -d " " -f 3 | xargs dpkg --purge

nota bene: moving & relinking the theme part means you can't install any new themes unless you delete the link & move the files back to their original place...

i use those exact instructions routinely when reflashing my N900s (now mostly the test model ) and never had any problems
then again, i don't give a darn about themes
