Tiger Touch low on HD after 9.1

Postby akepaulsson » 11 Aug 2015, 21:25

After installing Titan v9.1 the console warn that I am low on HD space on the C partition. There is only 1.1Gb left (The D partition has 34Gb left) . Is it a problem? If its so, what should I do about it?

Yes this can be a problem and should not be ignored.

You should run a full erase recovery to free up the space. Please use a V9 recovery disk. As this will wipe all data you must first backup your license, shows and any other data.

Okey, so I backup My shows, and my license and the Visualiser data. Nothing more?

Then I Run the full "erase recovery" instaling 9.0 again and then the 9.1 uppdate?

How much space do I gain by that or is the HDD geting new partitions with a bigger C partition after the full erase?

(It took half a day to install the 9.1 so i would prefer to get this right the first time.)

Sounds good to me. The only other things to backup might be custom personalities if you have made any.

Not sure but it should hopefully solve problem. It's a good idea to do this anyway as it will ensure clean up-to-date system.

It shouldn't take too long. Say 5 mins to backup. Then assuming reasonably quick internet (around 10mb/s) I'd estimate around 30mins for download and create, 20 mins to run recovery and then about 2 mins to update to 9.1. 5 mins to license. 5 mins to restore backup.

Now its done! Thanks for good service.
It seams like the "Full Erase Recovery" also makes new partitions on the HDD. The "C" drive is expanded from 9.9GB to 13.9GB. The complete system for 9.1 is 8.6GB so now I have 5.3GB left on the "C" partition. (39%). The desc is now ready for programing the new shows for the autumn. :D
