Re: ipkg corruption?

Hello again,

df on / gives:

Filesystem                Size      Used Available Use% Mounted on
/dev/loop0              193.7M     33.8M    159.9M  17% /

If I'm right, since I'm using altboot to boot off an image on SD, that
looks about right.

Interestingly, ipkg update gives:

An error ocurred, return value: 6.

I googled this error but didn't figure anything out. Any ideas?

Many thanks.
