Public bug reported: Binary package hint: usb-creator
I run Ubuntu 8.10 live-usb created with usb-creator. Everything went well until I updated the packages several times with update manager. Suddenly I noticed that a free space on the file system dramatically decreased. I used all the recomendations from "Cleaning up a Ubuntu GNU/Linux system" (http://www.ubuntugeek.com/cleaning-up-all-unnecessary-junk- files-in-ubuntu.html) and run "Ubucleaner" (http://www.ubuntips.com.ar/2007/12/12/ubucleaner-10-limpia-tu-ubuntu/) script but with no luck. Then I uninstalled Mono, GIMP, games and few other things; removed all localization stuff. But nothing helped me to reclaim free space. (I've already done all the actions with apt cleans, removes, orphan packages, locales, browser caches, logs, etc) Finally, it came to the point, where 0 bytes of free space left. However, that fact don't prevent me to copy ~100MB of new files to the file system (I wonder how it could be possible). Every time I try to free up any disk space it will disappear instantly so i have 0 bytes of free space. Now, it seems, that persistence works only partially, and I can't update system packages with update manager (because of the lack of free space). Whole system is unstable. I've attached results from "df" command and screenshot from "Disk usage analyzer". ** Affects: usb-creator (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- free space disappearing on live-usb https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/302703 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
