Code:

E: Write error - write (28: No space left on device)

Even when trying to remove something you need a bit free space (for all the internal packaging database handling). Have a look into the iOS FAQ (wiki) and try to free up some space.

Hi again okay I had a look at the suggested link. and followed all the commands it said to do. But once there I used du -h / ..... but I don't know how to empty the ones that are too large using terminal. I was able to use FileZilla and empty the 4 folders suggested in help section. But I still don't have enough space to delete the old xbmc. I don't mean to be such a pain.... but I'm really stuck. please help.... please.....

....thank you!

Apple-TV:~ root# df -h
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/disk0s1s1 681M 621M 54M 93% /
devfs 26K 26K 0 100% /dev
/dev/disk0s1s2 6.8G 6.8G 4.9M 100% /private/var

Do you need the du -h as well?

/private/var is full ... you didn't successful follow the FAQ for freeing up the space. This is still filled up with your rented itunes movies...

No I wasn't successful.... I don't know the how to delete files via terminal. My coding skills are copy/ paste only.... And I don't remember renting itunes movies...?? But how do I get rid of them if they are there?

1. yes the article is from me - my name is printed there as "author" not for fun

2. free the space - ssh into the atv2 and issue the following commands:

Code:

rm -r /private/var/cache/apt/archives/*
rm -r /private/var/mobile/Library/Caches/AppleTV/Video/LocalAndRental/*
rm -r /private/var/mobile/Library/Caches/AppleTV/Video/Other/*
