Hi!
Suddenly I couldn't receive/send any more mail on my B3 with a 2TB disk. Then I run a, "df -h" command, and it showed no bytes left on /home partition. I started deleting files and moving files from my profile at /home/lars, about 300GB was moved to one of my attached USB drives. A new run of "df -h" showed that still no bytes left. I forced a "shutdown -rF now" command to force a fsck at boot, but this morning it still shows no free bytes left on /dev/mapper/bubba-storage which is mounted on /home. Please see attached picture.
Any suggestions will be appreciated.
Tia

Re: Home disk full, but not...
Can you confirm that the files were actually deleted from their original location? And did you also check Lost+Found? I've read about a file system bug once that would cause 'rm' to fail if the disk was completely full. A suggested workaround was to truncate files first by running 'echo> file_to_delete' and then delete them once you've freed enough disk space. Let us know if that works for you.

I did delete a big folder of data, using "rm -rf downloads/MyBigFolder", and after that I now have about 55GB free area left. I can't understand why my yesterdays move (using midnight commander, mc) of a big number of files, didn't let me free up some diskspace, but I'm glad that I have that now.
Thanks for all input on this.

Re: Home disk full, but not...
did you verify that those files were actually gone after the move? If not, could it be that you did an F5 (copy) instead of F6 (move)?
