All,

Thank you very much for your replies, I followed your advices, and I have
found that I can move some folders and files without breaking the Maemo and
some other folders will break the boot of it.  I saved 20MB at the end

details of what I have learnt is below

Kind Regards and Thankx everybody
Samer

  All,

 Sorry for the naive question, is there is a way to control where
 Applications are installed on my Nokia N810.
 I'd rather to install all applications on the Memory card instead of the
 built-in memory

 Thankx
 Samer

Indeed, however you can do a small hack and symlink the /usr/lib (or any other 
BIG directory) to the memory card. I'd recommend to check that boot can still 
be performed.

Happy hacking ...

not really, only thing you can do is run the OS from the mem card.
