RB750Gr2 Update to v6.35.2 --> fails

Hello,

today I try a update from 6.35 to 6.35.2, (over “check for updates - Download”) but the download fails with message: “ERROR: not enough disk space, 10,5MiB is required an only 8,9MiB is free”. On the RB750Gr2 I haven’t the possibility to use an USB-Stick as disk.

I have no other files on disk. How can I work around the problem?

Best regards

Have you installed any extra packages? Check what you have in “System → Packages” menu and post here.

Yes, I’ve installed only NTP-service extra.

You would need to get rid of the combo package and install manually the individual packages you really need.

See this statement http://forum.mikrotik.com/t/hap-ac-and-some-other-new-rotuers-too-small-flash/96674/30
In contradiction to

And browse the forum about the topics of insufficient disk space when doing upgrade. You will find also other interesting statements of mikrotik. Finally you will go by my way…

Jarda, can you please clarify your way? It is hard to tell from the topics you listed.

Side note: It seems really, really convoluted to need to browse the forum for something as simple as updating the router. I bought this router to learn networking, but all I’ve done is fight with it and routerOS. I am actively looking at other solutions.

-remove all files from the router
-put there system package only of newer ros version (from additional packages zip file)
-reboot
-put there additional packages you need
-reboot

the automatic update function should now have enough space to update in the future.

Use only separate packages from additional packages zip file, do not use the bundle ros package anymore.
