Root Memory full

[solly72]

I didn't and still don't know enough about how it all works, although I have now learned that hboot sets cache and system partitions thanks to you guys that helped me out.

I guess my desicion to root and modify my desire came with risks which I was willing to accept as I was thinking of going to the velocity anyway. I'm a sucker for technology and how it works. I was a computer technician up until 2007 when I gave it up because I was sick of chasing payments from customers all the time.

Although the desire and smartphones are like computers these days, they work very different in my opinion.

This was still a fun learning curve for me. I have now installed the runnymede bliss mix v2.0. I opted for the bliss option and all is running fast and smooth. I handed the desire to my daughter last night

You've never put a file called PB99IMG.zip onto your SD card and booted into HBOOT? That's the other way hboot is updated, but the method doesn't actually tell you that it's changing hboot (you could, with the right stuff in the zip, update anything this way), so could perhaps do that without knowing what it was changing?

I can't see anything in the Coolexe or Runnymede sites/threads to suggest that they actually change hboot during installation, but the INT2SD thread at XDA does reference this hboot and also links to the Runnymede thread. So if it was in any way connected to a ROM install, it was most likely that one.

good point, didn't think about that method

Yes you're right, I did flash that file I remember so my system could support int2sd I remember. But I didn't know or care at the time what that file did to my system.

And look where that got you, eh? - least it's sorted now
