I recommend you to use this Android app https://forum.xda-developers.com/sho....php?t=3444517, you can choose from which server you download, It's available to download directly from Google, apkmirror, and others

Both root and home partitions are formatted with ext4 and are respectively 2488624 blocks (aka less than 2.5 Gb for root, leaving about one gigabyte free for system stuff like /var/log and for installed apps binaries and libraries) and 18853612 blocks (aka less than 19 Gb for your personal data and Android apps+storage).

This is different from the original Jolla phone where both root and home were on the same btrfs partition, sized 14415852 blocks (aka about 10-11 Gb user space including system files, apps, etc).

I don't plan to install a bazillion apps; once I have working maps, socials and a very few utilities, I'm OK (multimedia will go on a 32 Gb microSD); I think my XperiaX will reach its end of life without needing to expand the root partition.

SailfishX is working surprisingly well in spite of all those "you're paying 50 bucks for an incomplete beta quality system" rants. After a few months of Android 7 I feel really better.

For example, backupping the entire home directory in a single Linux command (needs ssh enable in SailfishX developer settings, I also set up a fixed IP address to have "xperiax" hostname in /etc/hosts):
Code:
rsync --archive --delete --verbose --rsh ssh --exclude=.local/share/system/privileged --exclude=.config/signond --exclude=.cache/msyncd nemo@xperiax:/home/nemo/ /home/xperiax
Clearly Android doesn't have such a feature.

Note, I used /home/xperiax as target because my /home/nemo already contains Jolla 1 backup using basically the same rsync command and excluding the "privileged" directories.

My Xperia X with Sailfish is running - I really love it! But I have a problem: I have a 128gb micro sdxc card and it is not recognized by Sailfish (Settings=>Storage: "Memory card not inserted"). I tried ext4, fat32 and exFat (formatted outside the smartphone), and I also inserted the card without formating it. The result in Sailfish is the same: "Memory card not inserted". Do I make a mistake?

Maybe remove and recreate partition table on your sd card ?

And, as Sony has released a kernel 4.4-using Android 8 Oreo for the Xperia X, chances are high that Jolla will actually be able to do this (various sources mentionned in my TJC post).

On the other hand I doubt that any Snapdragon 400 would ever get Oreo ported (so no luck for Jolla 1) and even it that case, it would be the slightly older 3.18 that google proposes as an alternative for extremely old hardware.

And the above possibility of 4.4 kernel would bring even more hopes for Andbox on Xperia X.

Huh ? Mine still works...

...but supports UDF which is a good cross-platform choice, on the other hand.

I'll try to get a btrfs.ko next week, if possible.

I am a Linux / command-line tools addict, too.

The biggest space eaters are :
- ~2.8 GB for an old Android 6.0 Marshmallow image, if you want to downgrade in order to save the DRM keys.
- ~2.7 GB for an Android 7.1.1 Nougat image ( must be >= ...228 )
- ~1.2 GB for Sailfish

Each of the above will also require you to unpack/repack files, so an extra 3 GB free for temp won't hurt.

You'll have to burn some of your porn on BD-Rs

What for? Stock kernel doesn't support modules.

Whaaa?!? Argh!!!!

That's going to be a lot more work to get btrfs inside the kernel itself... T_T

Chill, judging from the config they're intending for it to load modules, i mean all these file system ones are configured as modules at least, but no CONFIG_MODULES=y so I'm not 100% sure whether it does or not.

I'll ping the jolla guys and let them know
