USB on knoppix running out of space(home/knoppix)

[Capricorny]

Have you checked posts in this forum about increasing size of persistent store?
And, sudo apt-get clean won't "work" if you have already purged the package cache. It has already done its job.

Not only new installs, but all upgraded packages plus apt's database will take up space in the persistent store, which is why ca 1 GB, which it seems you have set off, is way too little once you start using the system more regularly, with several extra programs.

Would a re-flash(without format) at least get me to a point where I could remove google chrome and other packages I don't use. Right now Synaptic package manager doesn't even work because lack
of space. What is persistent storage? I would hate to have to reformat, since my iceweasel book marks would be gone.

I've searched the web and the knoppix forum seems to be the best place to try and get answers to these kinds of things.

I found this from Klaus:

which I am not sure is what I need.

Thanks Guys
