I just got help from this page and it works anybody who faces problem can use -partition-size 128 as the option while starting the emulator from command prompt http://www.cuteandroid.com/tips-for-android-developer-failed-to-copy-file-to-system On Mar 23, 7:27 pm, Antonin Hildebrand wrote: > I have exactly the same problem: > > ~/android-sdk/platforms/android-7 ➔ adb remount > remount succeeded > ~/android-sdk/platforms/android-7 ➔ adb push /etc/hosts /system/etc/ > hosts > failed to copy '/etc/hosts' to '/system/etc/hosts': No space left on > device > > The reason why I need to use my local hosts file is simply because I'm > running local server which needs to be accessed by android emulator. > Not that uncommon setup I guess.

[android-developers] Re: adb push hosts file into /system/etc/ - No space left on device error
I get exactly the same error when I try to push my new compiled library file to system/lib. Is there any solution to get rid of Out of Memory error in adb push?

[android-developers] Re: adb push hosts file into /system/etc/ - No space left on device error
It seems my post from yesterday never showed up so I'm going to give it another shot. I'm also having this problem, I can find no way to edit the hosts file on an android virtual device. According to the docs adb remount is supposed to put /system into read-write mode -- which it may be doing -- but I'm still getting an Out of Space error. It looks like I'm going to have to setup a DNS server just so I can test a website unless someone has a better suggestion that I may be overlooking.

[android-developers] Re: adb push hosts file into /system/etc/ - No space left on device error
"Probably the reason why it's not working is that the /system partition is mounted read-only for obvious (security) reasons." This may be true, but according to the adb command [ http://android-dls.com/wiki/index.php?title=ADB ] You should be able to get around this by remounting. Relevant: "adb remount - remounts the /system partition on the device read-write" However, I've done that and I'm still receiving: failed to copy './hosts' to '/system/etc/hosts': Out of memory I, like the rest, am simply trying to test a local website on android. Is editing the hosts file not the recommended approach for testing dev stage websites on android? I'm open to suggestions for a better way On Mar 23, 3:47 am, Marek Pola wrote: > Hello, > > Probably the reason why it's not working is that the /system partition > is mounted read-only for obvious (security) reasons.

[android-developers] Re: adb push hosts file into /system/etc/ - No space left on device error
I have exactly the same problem: ~/android-sdk/platforms/android-7 ➔ adb remount remount succeeded ~/android-sdk/platforms/android-7 ➔ adb push /etc/hosts /system/etc/ hosts failed to copy '/etc/hosts' to '/system/etc/hosts': No space left on device The reason why I need to use my local hosts file is simply because I'm running local server which needs to be accessed by android emulator. Not that uncommon setup I guess. I wonder why it is not working out of the box. Any help greatly appreciated.

[android-developers] Re: adb push hosts file into /system/etc/ - No space left on device error
Hello, Probably the reason why it's not working is that the /system partition is mounted read-only for obvious (security) reasons. You need to remount it. Search on this mail list for the exact commands. But why do you need to edit the hosts file? Can't you use DNS to find the IP address of your host?
