Hi,
I've finally gotten around to restoring my AC-RT86U to factory defaults (since upgrading to Merlin) and i'm now attempting to clear the jffs partition, but i'm having trouble. I've tried the GUI option of "Format JFFS partition at next boot" several times, but it is not working. I've tried manually deleting or moving files away from the jffs partition with no luck. I've tried doing "cat /dev/null > <filename>" to wipe some files, but nothing is working (see below - i get the "No space left on device" error). Any ideas on how i can clean up the jffs partition? I would have thought the WebUI option would have done the trick, but it's not working. Any help is appreciated.

admin@RT-AC86U-7860:/jffs/usericon# cat /dev/null > 04a15123ca84.ico
-sh: can't create 04a15123ca84.ico: No space left on device
Many thanks!
