Full external flash memory

Hello, 

my name is Ana Belen Lopez and I am trying to add some more features to the kernel of the Nios II processor. When I have run the Linux I have received a message of kernel panic. The problem is there is no more external flash memory available, where the files are uploaded and stored. Do you know how I can erase files to obtain enough space to execute programs? 

 

Thank you very much. 

Ana.

Hi Ana,

You can trim things from your filesystem project directly. Or you might want to 

try a different filesystem that has some compression capabilities like cramfs or jffs2.
