Hi all

I have a BA upgraded with WM5 (Helmi 1.3 with 16mb page pool & 32mb ramdisk)

now after much reading i have started to install apps onto the ramdisk but for some reason the ramdisk is full with just 0.11mb free.

all of the files on there including cache dirs only amount to 2.53mb

so i have a couple of questions

does anyone know where the rest of the space has gone ?

is there a tool or program to help clean or wipe the drive so i can just copy the apps back onto it again ?

thanks

You might check to see if you set your Inbox settings to save attachments to the Storage Card.

Without using some 3rd party software such as Tweaks2k2 or a registry edit, checking the box to save attachments to the Storage Card actually creates a folder in the Ramdisk area.

I'm not sure if this is accurate or not, but I wonder if the OS looks for a storage area alphabetically. Since Ramdisk precedes Storage Card alphabetically, the saved attachments folder is created in the Ramdisk space.
