pogoplug E02 installation gone wrong

[HenryTheApe]

Hi Forum!
I have been using Openwrt on several routers for quite a while now, but I am new to ArchlinuxArm.

I tried an installation like this: http://archlinuxarm.org/platforms/armv5 ... 2-pinkgray
on a 16GB USB-Drive and it went fine untill:
$this->bbcode_second_pass_code('', 'wget http://archlinuxarm.org/os/armv5te/boot/pogo_e02/pogo_e02.sh')
stopped on an error: "no space left on device"

So i tried to redo it from step 6 but got confused with the directories.
I think ArchLinuxARM-kirkwood-latest.tar.gz was decompressed to root directory / - not to /tmp/alarm
tar -zxvf ArchLinuxARM-kirkwood-latest.tar.gz (without -C alarm)

Is that possible? If so, what does it do to the system? How can i make a clean installation?

(I continued with the U-Boot installation and after reboot i have access via SSH.)

Sounds like you extracted tarball to /tmp (ram) and not /tmp/alarm (USB drive).

Just reboot and start from scratch and follow the direction exactly. Why didn't you include the "-C alarm"? That is what tells the tar command to extract to the /tmp/alarm folder instead of /tmp.
