Guest EdinKali Posted December 28, 2007 Report Posted December 28, 2007 (edited) Having a rudimentary knowledge of unix commands, I decided to see what df -k spit out for disk usage. I was quite surprised to see rootfs, /dev/sda1 and unionfs allocated 420M each, yet only 32M were being used on each(9%). There were 2 tmpfs partitions, the first one had 254M allocated with less than 1% in use and the 2nd had 131M allocated also with less than 1% in use. The storage icon in the easy menu reports about 380M free with over 1.4G being taken up by the system. I can see having two 420M partitions for the OS and the backup but 3??!! Seems to me like there is some wasted space on my 2G SSD. Anyone have any insight to this? I may have to give eeeXubuntu a try if there isn't any way to free up that space with the default Xandros setup. Edited December 28, 2007 by EdinKali
Guest Paul (MVP) Posted December 28, 2007 Report Posted December 28, 2007 On my Eee I got rid of Union FS altogether, much better! I found a straightforward tutorial, i'll try and dig it out! P
