Plz do that and report back... so I can do it too... btw the symlink code is: ls -s path/file.type /opt/path/file.type?

the word is unoptified, and keeping that file at rootfs probably gives noticeable speed increase versus slow 32gb partition.

according to Desktop Command Widget

i had 87% used after moving libqt.....

moved other 2 files, rebooted now i have 81% used.....

not 100% sure if its from what i did, but i did install lots of games today which filled my rfs to 100%, then i started symlinking files, now i have 81% used

oh, and moving/symlinking the files didnt break my device and i didnt notice any delays in loading in the OS or microB......................

Ironically, you made your thread title true (MicroB not optimized) by making your intended thread title not true (MicroB not optified).

I'll change it for you, though.

I personally freed around 40-50 MB by moving /var/lib/apt, /var/lib/dpkg and /var/cache/apt out of the way (move them to /home and make symbolic links).

Details here

question: you need the empty space for what?
