All, some thoughts on 3rd party applications and space on the n800. Would it make sense to anyone out there to make the internal disk mount as /usr/local then format it with ext2/3. Finally try to motivate packagers into installing there packages into /usr/local instead of /usr. This would mean that up to 8GB of applications could be installed on the n800 (baring of course ones that have to be in on the / partition.)... then of course if you did the same with the external and mounted it as /home...... hmmm...
