Ubuntu :: Df Incorrect Disk Space ?
Aug 12, 2010I just finished my computer build and have installed Ubuntu lucid as my sole OS. Everything seems to be going well except for the fact that when I do "df -h", the size of my 1TB hard drive is reported as being only 908GB. I could understand if it was off by a few gigs but 92? The result is the same with the graphical "Disk Usage Analyzer." However, Under System>Administration>Disk Utility the correct number is displayed.

Jan 31, 2010Today I was installing a lot of software since I'm just setting up my Slackware system again after a fresh install, and I realized that my root partition has very little space left.
Here is the output of df -h:
Code:
As you can see, I have a 20G (19G here for some reason) root partition, 8G /var, and 86G of /home. I thought this would be plenty since many recent recommendations for / are 10-15G. Now, though, 17G are used up for some reason! How is this possible? I thought a full slackware install only had about 4G of software! I don't have any music or movies or any crazy huge files that I know of, and those would be in my /home directory anyway. Is there any way I can see which files are taking up all this space?
If it's necessary to allocate more space to my / partition, is it still possible to boot up a GParted live Cd, shrink /home a bit, move some partitions to the right, and expand my root partition? I would REALLY prefer I don't have to reinstall since I just spent a ton of time setting up my system again, but if worst comes to worst ... :'-(

Hardware :: Reduced Disk Space / Use The Total Amount Of Space?
Aug 25, 2009OS: RHEL AS 5 64-bit
HDD:300 GB Hardware mirror (HP blade bl460c)
While installing OS, in partition window after OS file system structure I've left 277 GB. But after installation it shows Size - 255GB and available disk space is 242 GB.
Isn't it weired? How can I use the total amount of space in Linux? I need the whole 277GB exactly. What should be my workaround?

Apr 27, 2011I've moved my /var/log directory to another disk (/mnt/serverlogs) and created a symlink for the original directory:
Code:
[root@fileserver2 var]# ls -aldZ /var/log
lrwxrwxrwx. root root unconfined_u:object_r:var_t:s0 /var/log -> /data/serverlogs
[root@fileserver2 var]# ls -aldZ /data/serverlogs
drwxr-xr-x. root root system_u:object_r:var_log_t /data/serverlogs
I have SELinux set to permissive and am getting lots of errors because the contexts are incorrect after a filesystem relabel. e.g.
Code:
[root@fileserver2 var]# ls -alZ /data/serverlogs/messages
-rw-------. root root system_u:object_r:default_t:s0 /data/serverlogs/messages
I believe that this file should be var_log_t.How can I restore the correct context to all of the files in /var/log?I've tried running:
Code:
restorecon -vR /var/log/
But this does not change the contexts, I guess because the files are now in the 'incorrect' location. I've looked through the file: /etc/selinux/targeted/contexts/files/file_contexts which I believe contains the original/default settings - maybe I need to alter this file to fix the problem? I've also tried modifying /data/serverlogs using:
Code:
semanage fcontext -a -t var_log_t /data/serverlogs
which fixes the directory itself, but not the contents,
Ubuntu :: Disk Full - Can't Free Any Disk Space
Jan 2, 2010I'm running mythbuntu 9.04 and am having an issue with disk space.
I try 'rm' various log files but the space I free up lasts less than a minute before the disk reports as being full once more.
df -Th | sort gives:

There's nothing enormous in /var/log and my trash and the root trash are empty.
why size and used fields are not the same despite 100% usage being reported on sda1..
General :: Disk Utility And Df Show Different Disk Space ?
Nov 18, 2010I don't understand disk sizes in Linux. I have a 500GB drive. It's ext4. I have run "tune2fs -m 0" on it to reserve the amount of space reserved for root to 0.
I'm using Ubuntu 10.04 that comes with a Disk Utility. When I run "System->Administration->Disk Utility (palimpsest)" the disk shows up as 500GB (see picture). But when I run df -h it shows up as 459GB. So, I don't understand the discrepancy.
When I run df I get the following:

Ubuntu :: Incorrect File System Space Reported By System Monitor?
Apr 3, 2011In System Monitor, on the File Systems tab, the "Total", "Available" and "Used" columns don't seem to add up, and the "Used" percentage doesn't seem correct either.
My config:
/dev/sda1 = 80 GB SSD drive, / partition.
/dev/sdb1 = 50 GB FAT32 partition of an external 500 GB USB hard disk.
/dev/sdb2 = remainder of the 500 GB USB hard disk encrypted using luks.
Screenshot: The /dev/sda1 figures don't really add up well, but they're close at least (how you get "50% Used" from any of those figures I don't know!).
However, for /dev/sdb2, they're miles off:
"Free" = 146.2 GiB
"Total" = 409.7 GiB
"Available" = 125.4 GiB
"Used" = 263.5 GiB

Ubuntu Installation :: Disk Space - Failes On A "E: Write Error - Write (28 No Space Left On Device)"
Jan 4, 2011df -h [URL] I did the following command to find everything is in /usr or /var, then tracked it down to /usr/lib and /usr/share as the main offenders, but out of all the directories none are more than 1mb or so.
du -sh /* | sort -gr | head -n 5
I tried to uninstall firefox, which is what got me in this mess in the first place, the log claims it will remove ~240 mb but failes on a "E: Write error - write (28 No space left on device)" [URL] If I could juggle something onto an external hard drive so I can uninstall firefox I would be out of the wood. Failing that I believe a new install is in order.
Ubuntu :: Resize Entire /root (root.disk) Virtual Disk Space?
Jan 25, 2011I'm running out of space in wubi. Online wubi help didn't help much since they suggest creating extra virtual disk space(similar to having a diffrent partition i guess) .None of them speak about increasing the size of /root disk space(or root.disk). I store all files in space shared with windows or external disk and use ubuntu only to install and use softwares and browsing. So how do increase the available space for installing more softwares?

Red Hat / Fedora :: Not Enough Disk Space
Jun 22, 2011I use windows and I want to install linux redhat beside it. So, in windows, I shrinked my Local Disk C 120gb, with Disk Management (control panel). During installation of redhat, I got to the step where I have to choose the partition where it will be installed.
First, I tried the 4th option ( use free space to create a partition), but it gave me error: Not enough disk space. So, I tried the 5th option ( create a new partition). It showed me the partitions on my pc, and showed me : Free, of size 120 gb. I tried to create a new partition, but it gave me the same error.
Why is this happening although I have 120 gb free (unallocated)?

Ubuntu :: My Disk Keeps Running Out Of Space
Apr 27, 2010A few days ago, I got a message that stated I had zero bytes of disk space left.Odd, I thought, but I had been doing video transcribing and thought that may be the issue.I moved a video (4 GB) off the hard drive to an external drive and then went about my business.This morning, I got the message again. I enclosed a screen shot. I moved a few more items off my hard drive - but then was soon out of space again. (Less than an hour later.)I logged in as root and poked around. I noticed that /var/archives had almost 60 GB of data in .tar.gz files.I moved them off to an external drive and am okay for now.

Ubuntu :: Extract ISO With Low Disk Space?
Jun 25, 2010I've got a slicehost VPS with 10GB disk space, and I'm trying to extract a 6.4gb ISO file. Between the ISO and the OS i've got just 761MB to play with. Is there anyway to extract files from within the ISO without needing another 6.4gb?
I've tried mounting the ISO as read/write so I could move files instead of copy, but did not have any luck. See here and here.
Should I just give up, download the iso, then re-upload the files? 6.4gb represents a long time over dsl.
