Too little memory can not be solved in sys.txt.
Sorry. It can! By appointing some memory to iGO, but that is device dependable. So there is no general rule. It's a emergency solution, so to speak, and naming the wrong amount of memory can crash the device!

How to install iGO8 from scratch
This is my (modified) general manual from the old disneyworld website, written for newbies.
It is no more than a guideline. I hope it helps. That is why I wrote it.

Somehow users unzip files that do not need to be unzipped with the consequence that the installation fails on start up. Read careful what to unzip! When I say ...

The iGO in this thread is very old now - released in May 2009.
The time that GPS devices were low on memory is gone too. Memory chips are cheap.
