Pocket903 - Only shows 1 GB in Windows Explorer?

The specifications say the 903 has 2 GB memory.
When I look at the 903 in Windows 7 explorer it shows as a
hard disk with 762 MB free of 952 MB.
In Disk Management it shows as Pocket903 Simple Basic FAT32 955 MB.

I know nothing of Linux but I installed a copy onto a spare computer
and logged on as root and hooked up the 903.

I looked at the 903 with a file manager called Dolphin and couldn't
find how to display the total disk size, all I got was tool-tip saying
763.0 MiB free.

Does anyone know where the missing 1GB is?
(or have I got to start learning about Linux).

Thanks for any info.

Hallo Dave,

the second GB is used for a system partition that we don't have access to. Beside others, dictionary files and tts files are stored there.

Maybe this thread helps even if it is in German:

OK, thanks. That saves me looking for something that isn't available!
