no space left - rflores2323 - 2012-03-11

Can someone please help me to see what files I can delete to open some more space up. I tried to download a skin and wouldnt download and then tried to update from beta 3 to rc2 and got an error saying below

Code:
Apple-TV:~ root# apt-get install org.xbmc.xbmc-atv2
Reading package lists... Error!
E: Write error - write (28: No space left on device)
E: Can't mmap an empty file
E: The package lists or status file could not be parsed or opened.

Here is my output from df

Code:
Apple-TV:~ root# df
Filesystem           1K-blocks      Used Available Use% Mounted on
/dev/disk0s1s1          768000    406440    353880  54% /

3.0G /private/var/mobile/Library/Preferences/XBMC/addons/packages

clear the contents of that one.
it contains backups/older versions of all your addons and skins.

And if that didn't work you can also go to
mobile/library/caches/appletv/video/localandrental and get rid of everything in there and you'll clear up a gig or more.

Was reading this and cleaning out some files on my atv2 via winscp and accidentally deleted everything in the mobile/library/caches directory instead of going into video/localandrental. Does anyone kow if this will impact anything (doesn't seem to have thus far) and or whether there is a way to recreate what is supposed to be in that directory? I know....stupid mistake!
