while installing windows in my machine, i some how gave 100 Gb to store the back-up (I am really not getting the exact name, so please pardon me for using back-up word) and while i was creating ubuntu on windows, being stupid i did provided sufficient space for my home directory. At present my ubuntu structure is
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/sda6 46G 7.0G 37G 17% /
none 4.0K 0 4.0K 0% /sys/fs/cgroup

My system had 500 gb space out of which i can only see 268 gb. I really don't have any idea, where the rest of space is gone. I don't want to format my machine fully and then start working again. Can some one help me, to add some more space to my /home
directory.
mount
only shows mounted partitions. To list every partitioned and unpartitioned space, usesudo parted -l
