Title: BAMT cron: No space left on device
Post by: ewibit on July 29, 2012, 08:15:12 PM
hi
if I install a new crontab in BAMT I get always:

/var/spool/cron/: mkstemp: No space left on device
crontab: edits left in /tmp/crontab.NkF3RG/crontab

but there is space:

Filesystem            Size  Used Avail Use% Mounted on
tmpfs                 1.3G  1.8M  1.3G   1% /tmp
/dev/sda3              96M   67M   25M  73% /home
none                  1.3G  236K  1.3G   1% /dev

any hints?
TIA

Its because of the partition that BAMT makes.  It only makes a partition big enough to install the OS on and very little else, the rest of the USB is blocked off as unallocated space, and the only way you can see it is in Windows if you are looking in the Drive Manager.  Basically, BAMT isnt made to have outside things added to it and ran. If you want a Linux setup that you can install and use other programs with, you will need to go with another distro as BAMT is meant for mining bitcoins and thats it.

to start all over with a fresh clean slate, so to speak. Sometimes with certain "FORMAT.exe" it doesnt clean all the attributes of the filesystem. 4 gig flash and no space left? Bamt will format the 4 gig flash to only the size it needs, if you use the HP USB file it will format and clean all attributes and oh yeah make sure it is FAT not FAT32 or NTFS.
