Hello
My friend bought a DM7020hd v2 box, but contrary to what was expected, this box is show the 370 MB of RAM and 309 MB of flash.
What causes this difference and how do I fix this?
thx
DM7020hd v2 with 370 MB of RAM and 309 MB of flash?

Some parts of the RAM are reserved for the framebuffer (and I think video output or so). You can see this on any Dreambox, but of course in the 7020HD the effect is biggest, cause it has so much RAM
The Flash is 1 GB, but it is partitioned. I think the reason for this is faster bootup or better perfomance for file actions.
Just for enigma2, plugins and even a lot of picons 300 MB ought to be more than enough, but you can still use /data for additional stuff ((check with "df -h" via Telnet/SSH). -
Same answer as you got at OoZooN' board:
There is no need to fix anything as there is nothing broken.
The rest of the 512 Memory is used by the Videodecoder and not available
to Linux - similar to what Graphiccard do often with the PC's Main
Memory.The Rest of the 1GB Flash ist mounted at /data for his personal needs
(Picons, etc...) or to be used from Plugins, like for example the
DarkShadow Plugin does.But it should be 369MB for a v1 box and a few MB more for a v2 - so please check once more

For exactly checking you need ubinfo -aCode

UBIFS has about 10% overhead resulting in the 369 on df -h output and
the v2 has 402MB for root instead of 397 of the v1 from the ubinfo
output above.If you want a bigger root filesystem - dFlash allows to change the sizes with backup restore.
