KDM fail after filled harddrive

[Frank616]

Steve:

I put /home on the 12 GB drive. You can still do that if you copy it over. You can then symlink it for the time being until you are sure that it works. Then you can reinstall on the 4 GB drive, but tell the installer that /home is on the 12 GB drive, and then tell the partitioner portion of the installer NOT to format /home. It should be obvious when you reinstall.

I removed K3B, KPPP, and a whole lot of other programs that I don't use on the Eee after the initial install from the external USB CD drive, but before I did the first update over the Internet. Also ran a command that I found here that cleaned up everything other than the current kernel image. That then left me enough room for the update.

On no I think I forgot to clink on post button before I rebooted. I hope clipper reemembers the copy so I can redo the post...

I found a suggestion by vinneywright on another post that i thought might help me. So i tried it...

Wew! Luckley klipper reemembered the copy. Anyone know what those errors mean? After reeboot nothing seeems to work any better.
