I am new in the software arena, so forgive me if I am missing something 
obvious.  I have a BeagleBone Black.  I have loaded Debian  v3.8.13-bone37 
from 
https://rcn-ee.net/deb/microsd/wheezy/bone-debian-7.3-2014-01-24-2gb.img.xz . 
 I believe my flash slowly fills up without additional software being 
loaded.

After a fresh "flashing" of the eMMC a df -h shows:

With or without user activity the rootfs and /dev/disk/... grows to fill 
the available space.  As shown:

Filesystem

96M   72M      25M       75%   /boot/uboot

I have tried executing apt-get clean, autoclean, remove and autoremove. 
 Nothing seems to reduce the used flash.  I have reflashed the eMMC with 
the above mentioned SD image three times.  It has acted the same each time. 
 I first noticed this problem when I tried to do an apt-get upgrade and 
received error messages of out of disk space.  I then have reflashed two 
more times to make sure the problem is consistent. 

Help would be greatly appreciated.

Craig
