To free up space on receiver mount a usb stick and initialise then type following telnet commands:

Code:
init 4
mv /usr/lib/enigma2/python/Plugins/Extensions /media/usb
mv /usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages /media/usb
ln -sfn /media/usb/Extensions /usr/lib/enigma2/python/Plugins/Extensions
ln -sfn /media/usb/site-packages /usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages 
init 3


Reboot Enigma2 then Extensions folder should be on USB stick.

You have to be very careful on how much space you have and where you will store/copy the data, did you have a USB Stick ? Was it recognized properly ? These are all questions you need to answer to be sure that the moving of the files was properly done. At what you tell, I think something failed there and files are gone/lost as these never ended on the USB Stick. A new install is necessary if such fault happen. Other members successfully installed this and gained mostly 25 Mb in Flash.

For me works, create an Expand folder in my usb stick and replicate the plugins.
I gained roughly another 20 mb of space! grin
Thanks!

fai cos�:
1-fai un installazione pulita dell' immagine
2-cancella tutti i dati dalla penna usb, formatta nuovamente in ext3
3-come prima cosa installa il plugin che ho suggerito
4-esegui la procedura guidata, alla fine dell'installazione ci sar� il reboot automatico
5-ora ovrebbe essere tutto ok, controlla lo spazio recuperato
6-installa i restanti plugin a tuo piacimento

Ps: consiglio di abilitare ed usare anche file swap !

Grazie Ts come al solito, ma se ho usato lo script postato sopra per spostare il tutto su usb posso comunque usare il plugin ?
Grazie

Penso che lo script fa la stessa cosa di quello che hai gia fatto, forse dunque inutile o anche ... rischioso, potrebbe piantare il tuo box,

Here's a couple more, whatever works for you... wink

I would recommend:

-partitioning a USB stick or SSD in 2 partitions

-one for FLash Expander and nothing else

-the other for SWAP, picons, EPG and so on...

Enjoy! smile
