Re: fileSystem is full
Actually looking at the output more closely seems you had mistyped the command, looks like you added a minus in front of the 100.
Re: fileSystem is full
Looks all ok except the overgrown timeshift folder, nuke that for now:
and then probably move it to the other partition. Also check the configuration, you're likely keeping too many old snapshots for it to grow that big.
Code: Select all
sudo rm -rfv /timeshift

Thank you . that command removed many files and after that was finished , i rangm10 wrote: ⤴Wed Mar 20, 2019 6:57 am Looks all ok except the overgrown timeshift folder, nuke that for now:and then probably move it to the other partition.

sudo rm -rfv /timeshift
sudo reboot
and after that login page was shown and i'm logged in to desktop .But when i was writing this post , that message was shown again that Low Disk Space on filesystem .
What can i do ?
Re: fileSystem is full
Run this again:
My guess is it's Timeshift again and you're including something in the snapshots that you shouldn't, like your entire second partition maybe. Make sure you exclude its mount point via Timeshift's filters.
Code: Select all
sudo du / -hxd 1 -t 100M

How i exclude its mount point ?
Although i've been installing Docker in Linux .
Is it possible this problem created because of installing docker ??

Re: fileSystem is full
Nothing there. It's something you must have added yourself to Timeshift's configuration, like your user folder.
You can copy & paste from a terminal window by the way.

Re: fileSystem is full
How to get what was i added in Timeshift's configuration ??
Because i don't know what i did ...
I know
But i can't login to desktop again .
After that i posted that post which i took a screenShot from "filesystem" error , i rebooted system and i stuck in login loop again and now come here with windows .
Re: fileSystem is full
Well, same as before, nuke the timeshift folder, and then as I had already said, check Timeshift's configuration (Timeshift > Settings). Or just reset the configuration:
Code: Select all
sudo rm /etc/timeshift.json
Re: fileSystem is full
I ran reset configuration command and after that i rebooted system .gm10 wrote: ⤴Wed Mar 20, 2019 10:43 am Well, same as before, nuke the timeshift folder, and then as I had already said, check Timeshift's configuration (Timeshift > Settings). Or just reset the configuration:Code: Select all

Re: fileSystem is full
I really got nothing to add, nuke /timeshift and change the configuration, that's all.
Re: fileSystem is full
Via
sudo rm /etc/timeshift.json
command ?can i remove timeshift again for logging in to desktop and when i log in to desktop , i change timeshift configuration in desktop ??
Is it possible ?
Re: fileSystem is full
only way to reset timeshift configuration is
sudo rm /etc/timeshift.json
command ?actually , when i log in to desktop , should i run that command in terminal ??
is it different output for running that command in desktop terminal area or ctrl+alt+F1 terminal area ?!!

Re: fileSystem is full
Hi again
I had nuke timeshift in ctrl+alt+F1 and after that i logged in to desktop like a charm .
When i logged , i opened timeshift application and a window was shown with "setup wizard" title .
I can choose two option of Snapshot Type ( RSYNC and BTRFS ) .
Which can i choose ?

Re: fileSystem is full
rezza, choose RSYNC. At the Select snapshot location screen, choose a location that isn't your hard drive (the first selection). Then click the "Next" button and change the number of daily snapshots to 0. That will set up Timeshift to only make backups when you request it to make one.
Hope this helps.
