I am responsible for a PBX system which uses embedded uClinux on
256MB internal memory disk, this uses YAFFS2 filesystem and it is
rapidly running out of memory. df used space is 240MB (96% of total)
and du used space is 76MB. Once df gets to 100% used I guess the
whole system will fail and be irrecoverable. I don't understand much
about YAFFS but here is some info:

(The mounting memory loss may be related to frequent power cuts. Is
there anything that can be done to recover the lost memory
(currently 164MB) before the system fails entirely?
I would be very grateful for some urgent help/input, and can pay
something for a positive resolution. (The PBX box also has an
attached USB drive (8GB) but although this is working fine I don't
believe the system can boot from here, and it has no local
interface, only via ethernet.)
Thanks and regards
Dominic
