Low Diskspace Problem - NOT the usual.

Hello everyone,

I'd like to start off by saying that this is a wonderful community, and that I am honored to be part of it. IFilipino told me about it

So my problem:

I am running firmware 1.1.4 on an iPod Touch, and recently saw the post about how to make the Low Disk Space message disappear.

I started doing it, although when I get to the 3rd and 4th lines, it tells me "Permission Denied"

Please someone help! I am leaving the country tomorrow at noon, and want to fix this ASAP.

Thnx alot in adavance!

~ Ivel

2) Move your applications folder to the /private/var folder by typing the following:

mv /Applications /private/var/Applications

3) Change directory to / by typing

cd /

4) Create a symbolic link to the Applications folder's new location:

ln -s /private/var/Applications Applications

5) Type the following to get a directory list of /, so we can make sure the symbolic link was created correctly:

ls -la

You can use Boss Tool to move the Fonts and the Ringtones but I wouldn't recomment moving the Applications with it. I've read a lot of people had problems after moving the Apps.

Moving Ringtones gives you about 2-3mbs.
Doesn't hurt, but yes, fonts is where it's at =D
