Re: [Trisquel-users] Help - Just installed and now appear to have hardly any free space

[amenex]

First, look in your root (/) folder and see if your home (/home) folder is in  
there. If it is, it would be better to install Trisquel again, this time  
choosing the 300GB partition for the /home folder mount point and the 20GB  
partition for the root (/) mount point. Twenty GB should be plenty for your  
OS and applications, and any data that you gather later will not fill up the  
root partition if it's placed (where it belongs !) in the Data partition  
(/home). I'd label that 300GB partition "Data" so it'll make some sense to  
you.

Look at your disk with GParted (or install GParted from the Add/Remove  
Applications menu). Then see whether that second instance of the 300GB  
partition pops up ...
