In which case, from X Terminal, run:
Code:
dpkg -l mp-fremantle-203-pr
and make sure it has "ii" as the start to show it's installed. If not, run:
Code:
sudo gainroot
apt-get install mp-fremantle-203-pr

I still have 42.11... and my rootfs is showing 83% use (37.6M available)...why? I didn't use anything from extras-devel, just extras-testing and extras....plus they are all small apps..a few mb maximum... I still could update to 44-1 OTA..and then to 51-1...but i need to free rootfs first...but how ?

Disable extras/develop repositories and refresh. For more information check: this areas FAQ.

If you're sort of space, try disabling the -devel and -testing repositories temporarily. The FAQ for this section should also detail some other ways to free up space on the rootfs.

yes, had disabled the extras repos, but didnt help.

the moving of /var/cache/apt to /home did help .

So finally im downloading the mp-fremantle-203-pr now. but im wondering how did this ever get uninstalled if it existed in the the first place ?
good to know so me and other dont repeat the accident again.

cheers

The only way I've heard of this getting uninstalled is if you install some of the -devel apps using apt-get or dpkg.

the mp-fremantle-203-pr seems to have changed my app manager.
But the firmware still reports 42-11. Ive tried doing an update in the app-manager , but no sign of 44-11.

any clue ?

cheers
