    Problems with rootfs memory full

    Hi

    I am trying to update my Zgemma H2s and flashing from a USB is failing every time, so I have managed to get a telnet coding to update the box but I have a problem with the rootfs is full so cannot load any formatting tools and update the new image.

    The coding is:

    opkg update && opkg install dosfstools # to install the FAT file-system formatting tools

    umount /dev/ sda1 # unmounting the USB storage device
    mkdosfs -F 32 -I /dev/sda1 # usage of the FAT32 formatting tool
    mkdir -p /media/myusb # make a temporary dir
    mount /dev/sda1 /media/myusb # mount the USB storage device again to this temporary dir

    wget -O /media/myusb/ openatv-6.4-zgemmah2s-20201128_usb.zip --no-check-certificate " http://images.mynonpublic.com/openatv/nightly/zgemmah2s/openatv-6.4-zgemmah2s-20201206_usb.zip"
    unzip /media/myusb/ openatv-6.4-zgemmah2s-20201206_usb.zip -d /media/myusb
    rm -f /media/myusb/ openatv-6.4-zgemmah2s-20201206_usb.zip

    reboot

    but running a report on the memory status gives me this:

    root@zgemmah2s:~# df
    Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on
    ubi0:rootfs 222144 222136 8 100% /
    devtmpfs 156140 4 156136 0% /dev
    tmpfs 64 0 64 0% /media
    tmpfs 156284 1304 154980 1% /var/volatile
    /dev/sda1 14997176 139384 14857792 1% /media/hdd
    root@zgemmah2s:~#

    Any of you clever people know how to fix the rootfs memory problem.

    ok, but the situation could apply to other boxes and not just to a H2 model. I just wanted some suggestions concerning how I free the rootfs memory.

    You'd need to look at what you've put there and figure out which parts can be moved onto /media/hdd.
    MiracleBox Prem Twin HD - 2@DVB-T2 + Xtrend et8000 - 5(incl. 2 different USBs)@DVB-T2[terrestrial - UK Freeview HD, Sandy Heath] - LAN/USB-stick/HDD

    Then move the root to an SD card and then you can run with as much memory as the card. (ViX plugin H9SDManager - copy to sd card & follow instructions
    Gigablue Quad 4K & UE 4K
    .........FBC Tuners:
    ------------------> DUR-Line DCR 5-1-8-L4 Multiswitch to 1.5M dish(28.2E)
    ------------------> Spaun SUS 5581/33 NFA Multiswitch to 80 cm dish(19.2E)
    .......................> FBC & DVB-S2X into 90cm dish (27.5W) Opticum robust Unicable LNB
    AX HD61, Edision Osmio 4K+, Zgemma H9Combo, Octagon SF8008 , gbtrio4k, h9se using Legacy ports on multiswitches
    Zgemma H9 C/S into Giga4K
