During an upgrade I received an error message stating that I had less 1 GB left on root partition... unfortunately I had to shutdown my machine before I could investigate.
Now, I received this error message from the rescue command line:
After some reading, I deleted all of my old kernels and large files found in "/" . However, no matter how much I delete I still get the same error above.
Why isn't Ubuntu recognizing the additional freed space that I created? I easily freed 2 gigs of space, but I get this constant request for 529M
I even ran:
#sync
No luck
Additional Info I am on Ubuntu 20.04, Acer Aspire 5 55g machine, and per the comments below:
df -h
and maybelsblk
? This will provide some specific information that may make it easier to answer your question 👍🏻tune2fs -m
(works only for ext2/ext3/ext4 filesystems).
