I am trying to install something on the Ubuntu and it returns me the message : 'no free space on device'.
I have tied 3 different ways to free some space and apparently did not succeed.
1: Synapsis is a software that helps me remove/uninstall some software but in order to access it, firstly i have to install it:
sudo apt-get install synaptic
But since there is no space left, I can t.
2: Ubuntu software Center Is missing from my list and I have tried to install is as well
sudo apt-get install software-center
As in the previous case, no spae, no install done.
3: I tried line commands like
sudo apt-get purge <>
sudo apt-get remove <>
No success.
I even tried some commands like
df -i
// to see the inode usage
df -h
//to see if there are any folders that are 100% full
du -sh
//check large file , du command, short for disk usage, is used to estimate file space usage.The du command can be used to track the files and directories which are consuming excessive amount of space on hard disk drive.
df -h
?htop
for see where is to need free space. if the problem comes from your package try usingbleachbit
