Hi, I am trying to install java1.3 on my CF card. I don't have enough
space left in RAM, only 2440 available, so I want to put java on my CF
card which have plenty of space, with 41907 available. The problem is
when I run:

ipkg -d ext install java1.3 with ext set to /mnt/hda/usr

I get the following error:

wget: write error: No space left on device
ipkg_download: ERROR: Command failed with return value 1: `wget
--passive-ftp -q -P /tmp/ipkg-Ha9Pah
http://familiar.handhelds.org/familiar/releases/v0.6.1/base/armv4l/java1.3_1.01-oxy2_arm.ipk'

ERROR: Failed to download java1.3. Perhaps you need to run `ipkg
update'?

Is ipkg trying to use the RAM even though I have told it to use the
CF card, I can't figure out why else I might be getting an out of space
error unless it is trying to download the file first to RAM and then
install it on the CF card.

Any help here would be greatly appreciated .............. thanks
........... Reagan
