[cobalt-users] system part full and swatch warning light can not be turned off ?



This is a swatch problem but the answer is not at the swatch discussion forum, they suggested i go here :)

I just got a new Raq4i.

It has a 1GB system partition and after loading the new updates from Cobalt (including the new backup stuff) that partition is nearly full.

It is at about 84 percent, and as a result the SWATCH active monitor will not go out.

The light blinks constantly, and when you follow the light to the next page they are all green.

I have tried to hack the /etc/cobalt/swatch configuration files, particularly fs.conf, but i can not get this light to go out.

DOES ANYBODY KNOW how to get SWATCH TO IGNORE an almost full system partition.

Has anybody else been able to load the latest PGK's without filling up the partition and making the warning light go off?

I have the Raq only six days, and already i have a warning light that won't go out.

If it were a car i would take it back. I know i can not make the partition bigger, but can i not change the SWATCH so that it does not go off till 90% full?????

Anybody doing that. It must be a common problem with the 1GB partition?
