Try to modify partitions map. Is it possible?
I own an "ancient" WowPad Infotmic tablet, upgraded to Froyo. All right till this moment, but I'm trying to install Ubuntu/Debian through Linu Installer. The process is easy and clear, but needs a lot of memory (about 900 Mb in /Data), and I have not enough resources. Well, thats not exact: my partitions map is:
Partition....FS.....Devices....Mounted at...TOTAL(Mb)..FREE(Mb)
mtdblock0...........ramdisk.....................2
mtdblock1...........kernel......................6
mtdblock2...yaffs...resv........................256
mtdblock3...yaffs...system....../system.........192......69
mtdblock4...yaffs...userdata..../data...........984......894
mtdblock5...yaffs...cache......./cache..........64.......59
mtdblock6...yaffs...Local-disk../mnt/sdcard.....511......487
mtdblock7...........panic.......................1
TOTAL...........................................2016.....1509
I know there are some apps to resize partitions, but are always referred to /system, /cache and /data, and there is only limited space to gain.
But, What about mtdblock2(256 Mb)? I can't access it (denied), I canīt mount it (denied), I canīt see its content.
I think it may be the recovery partition (I'm not sure), but Is it neccessary so much space for that?; Is it occuped all the partition space?; If not, Is it possible to resize that partition and reassign space to mtdblock4?.
All contribution will be appreciated.
Best regards.
