Just not now.
I put it off for two years until I accidentally messed up my filesystem and was forced to reflash.

I guess I should just wait it out then since I'm long overdue for a messed up filesystem.

Yeah, as Tso politely said Qt eats storage (and so does python if you haven't installed it for other reasons already).

Is there any way to symlink the files need to my memory card instead of using up all of that flash memory?
Not in any automated way. You could try moving / linking stuff manually, but IMHO it's more trouble than it's worth and not maintainable in the long run (updates will still install on the rootfs, your memory card is probably a FAT filesystem mounted noexec etc).

If you need more space the best way to get it would be to use bootmenu to clone the entire system to the card and boot/run from there.

I did apt get install wget and it appeared to work, but, after I do:

wget http://www.nmacleod.com/nokia/bin/nupgrade.sh

I get:

-sh: wget: not found

I checked http://www.nmacleod.com/nokia/bin/nupgrade.sh with my browser and it downloaded a file (on my pc)

???

When doing the format memory I'm having a problem:

I can do:

umount /media/mmc2
sfdisk /dev/mmcblk0 << EOF
1,15000,c
15001,,


EOF

Then I do

mkdosfs /dev/mmcblk0p1
shutdown -r now

when it reboots I get a memory card corrupted error, then I do:

mke2fs /dev/mmcblk0p2

and I get an error stating:

-h: mke2fs: not found

I assume I have to install some package. I did a search in application manager on mke2fs on package name and description.

Any ideas?

apt-get install e2fsprogs

And try changing the 'c' after 1,15000 to a '6' and run the mkdosfs command again (start over).

The 15000/15001 will give you a 1.5g root partition and 500meg dos partition for mmc2. I use 30720/30721 to make both partitions 1gig and what would normally not fit on the default filesystem is using 60% of the 1gig. So if you want the dos filesystem to be larger for whatever reason...

when I run apt-get install e2fsprogs it doesn't install due to missing dependencies.

It says to run apt-get install -f with no packages which I did.

It installed some qt files and upgraded some and didn't install others but when I tried to run mke2fs it again said it wasn't found.

I'm looking further at the dependency issues and I see the files required by e2fspros require 4.5.0-1maemo2 dependencies but 4.5.3-1maemo1 are installed.

I see on the Gronmayer site that e2fslibs and e2fsprogs are supposed to be in several repositories that are installed on my system, but, the files are not there when I check
