I had the same problem and solved it with a mixture of tricks I found here on the mailing list. I don't know which of them is really necessary. - I used 512MB swap (maybe thats not the problem when you say 128 wasn't even full) - I stopped frameworkd: "/etc/init.d/frameworkd stop" - I first did "opkg install opkg libopkg0" - I upgraded all frameworkd files: "opkg list_upgradable | grep frameworkd" and then "opkg install <pack1> <pack2> ..." - I stopped frameworkd again (since it seems it started up again): "/etc/init.d/frameworkd stop" - Now I finally did the normal "opkg upgrade" I found another "solution" in the SHR User Manual (http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/SHR_User_Manual#System_Customizing). It's a script which installs one upgradable packet after another and spares out the kernel packets (I don't know why ;)). The problem for me was, that I couldn't answer the config-file-overwrite-dialogue and the script always stopped at this point.
