[maemo-users] disk space running short on /

[From: Christer Eliasson]

I know about symlinks :p

And yes as Kenneth pointed out it will bork on the next update.

Making a symlink is just a workaround of the real problem.

Ie not being able to choose flashing target (which would be nice) or  
defaulting on internal memorycard on N810.
