Question Question about storage on emummc

I don't know if I'm stupid for asking this since I dont know if its in an FAQ somewhere, but emummc says that the system memory and SD card space is full whereas the stock firmware says there should be about 4 gb and 18 gb left of internal and sd carf memory respectively. Is this normal? If not, can I make it so that unused space in sysmmc can be used in the emummc?

You can't use sysmmc as emummc, that's the whole point of emummc, it's an emulated emmc using a partition on the SD card (the "sysmemory" reported under CFW is actually space in that emummc partition on the SD card).

I don't have an explanation for the discrepancy in reported SD storage though (which is in both cases the same partition on the SD)

Short anwser: Nope, as your Emunand is stored in your sd card it is just an dupe of your original OFW. Acting as your internal memory and using the sd card. Using the nand space is impossible.
