Timeshift - Diskproblem?
I have been running this newly installed LMDE 4 workstation for about 3 weeks now.
I have divided a WD 8 TB disk in to partitions. One 6 TB for /home and the rest 2 TB to Timeshift.
I just did a cat /var/log/syslog, when finding this on /dev/sda2 where Timeshift saves all backups,

I would appreciate any suggestions on what I need to do.
Thanks

Re: Timeshift - Diskproblem?
Ok, but what format is
sda2
?Post the output of
lsblk -f
Please use code tags. You might have to expand the width of your terminal to capture the full width of the output.

Re: Timeshift - Diskproblem?
As an aside, having a separate partition for Timeshift is a good idea. Giving it more than 60 GB is a waste of space (and you probably won't use half that).* Not related in any way to the problem you're having, but think about resizing the partition once the dust settles.
* Unless you're using Timeshift to back up data files, which is a very bad idea. Ask why, if that's what you're doing.
