Size of Flash memory in 50g ???
Message #1 Posted by Klaus Boehme on 5 Jan 2009, 8:36 a.m.

Hello, I have a few days HP50g purchased. When I go to the filer, then I see that Port2 (Flash), only 766 KB free space, although nothing is stored. It is not that the flash Sreicher 1 MB must show? Or am I mistaken? Greetings Klaus

On my 50g, there are a couple libraries on port 2:FLASH for the Equation Library. These came pre-installed. Remaining memory on mine for port 2 shows as 699KB according to the file manager (WHITE Key then "APPS" or "APPS" key then select item 7).

Top level listing on mine:

0:IRAM     227KB
1:ERAM     127KB
2:FLASH    699KB
3:SD    934560KB
Home       227KB
-Flight
-Calc
-Trig
-Spen

You can examine objects stored in flash using the file manager - use up/down arrows to select "2:FLASH" and press ENTER. My listing for 2:FLASH looks like this:

EQLIB:Equation L226   57496
EQLIB:Equation L227   11307

I think, the flash is shared between the operating system and the user flash memory. So what you see is what was left after installing the operating system in flash memory.
