    Rob1n, it's Nokia to blame for partitioning 30 Gigs to fat.
    Try installing OpenArena from extras (313 Mb) by any normal means with default partitioning. Basically anything above 50Mb will likely fail.

    I believe "apt-get clean" (without the quotes) as root in the terminal will clear the cached items without a reboot.

    What are you on about? OpenArena works perfectly fine straight from the repository. And no, the partitioning to fat has nothing to do with this problem.

    try it with apt-get install openarena
    Default app managed probably mounting apt cache to some other folder to install it, but they could surely made a separate 5-10Gb /usr partition and avoid most the /opt and rootfs space problems.

    /home/user/MyDocs/.apt-archive-cache/ that is

    Didn't try that since ham worked fine for that. But moving apt cache is actually a pretty good idea. Should be under /home not under /home/user/MyDocs tho, to preserve the file rights and all that.

    Ok gonna do that now.
