OK, Complete Noob here. Just got my N800. First thing I did was to flash to OS2008. All OK there, seems to run fine.

Now I'm trying to install apps - any apps. Going through the Application Manager, it updated the catalog ok, but no matter what I try to download and install (either directly from the Web or by downloading the .deb file first and double tapping it) I get the same message - "Not enough memory in target location". Even though there IS lots of memory available.

Any suggestions. I've reflashed OS2008 again, just to try that, as many on the forums have suggested it. Same thing.

I would appreciate a "user level" solution as I've no familiarity with Linux.

Thanks

Run "df"' in a terminal and look at the line that ends with "/".

I would suggest run in a xterm:
fsck -fy /dev/mmcblk0p2
after booting the device from internal flash.

To run this you have to be root and having e2fsprogs (search how to become root and e2fsprogs)

looks like this thread may be a bit old, but i was having the same error message on my n900, and a simple restart fixed the problem

Have you disabled the extras-devel and extras-testing repositories? Otherwise you'll have to start uninstalling some of the non-optified packages.
