My 250GB ext3 disk on Ubuntu 10.4 is full. I can't find more than 20GB
worth of data on the disk. Disk Usage Analyzer and GUI file tools show
the disk with only 10GB free. Disk utility and e2fsck show the drive as
fine so I can't get it to repair itself. Even so I have about 220GB of
mystery data on the disk.
Perhaps some hidden (.*) files or directory somewhere.
I usually start at the top:
# du -shc /*
Then work my way down the branches that are the heavy hitters:
# du -shc /home/*
When you get to a directory that doesn't add up, there are probably some
hidden files/directories in it:
# du -shc /home/myacct/.*
