http://forums.fedoraforum.org – Hello all, I recently did a fresh install of FC12. When installing, I selected the option to completely format the HDD and use entire disk space. Apparently I was so excited everything worked perfect (upgraded from Fc10), until I started to copy videos and it said there isn't enough disk space. So I downloaded gparted and here's what it shows.. /dev/sbd (698.64 GiB) /dev/sdb1 - (File system) ext4 - (Mount point) /boot - (size) 200.00MiB - (used) 43.50MiB -(unused) 156.50MiB - (Flags) boot /dev/sdb2 - (File system) lvm2 - (Mount point) none - (size) 698.44GiB - used and unsed are none - (Flags) lvm How can I correct this problem? Thanks! P.S. when running command df -h, here's the reply Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on /dev/mapper/vg_jaber-lv_root 302G 283G 3.0G 99% / tmpfs 502M 664K 501M 1% /dev/shm /dev/sdb1 194M 38M 147M 21% /boot /dev/sdd1 1.9G 9.1M 1.9G 1% /media/TOSHIBA2G04 /dev/sdh1 4.0G 3.5G 468M 89% /media/FD70-D771 /dev/sda1 294G 4.0G 275G 2% /media/Storage (HowTos)

Resizing /boot partition 3 years 24 weeks ago

In the process of preupgrading to FC12.

Towards the end of the process I get a warning that my /boot partition isn't big enough (12 recommends minimum of 300Mb).

My disks: [root@fatbeast boot]# df -h Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on /dev/mapper/vg_fatbeast-lv_root 35G 6.6G 28G 20% /

XFS: No space left on device 33 weeks 1 day ago

I am using XFS on small HDD (/dev/sdb1, less than 1TB) and storing many small files (-32KB).

I can't understand why the readings from df, top and lvdisplay seem inconsistent after running lvresize. I ran lvresize to decrease my swap space by 3GB and increase my free space available by 3GB. The value in the 'Size' column for 'df' didn't change at all after running lvresize, which I found puzzling - even after a reboot.

We have a centos machine and the mysql is not starting and is due to space if full. Below is the df-h results. What best can be done in this situation?

I wish to increase size of my / partition (current size 21 GB), is that possible somehow? I have more free space available, but don’t know how to add it into the existing partition. I have created a new partition (named Extra, size 12 GB) with that free space and would like to either merge it with / or if that’s not possible is there any way to change the mount point.

I'm new to linux and I have question about mount point

I have two HDD in my system, one 500GB and one 1TB

The 500 is used for OS and swap, the 1TB is for storage only

the 500GB is name sda1 and 1TB is sdb1

I first mount the 1TB drive to /media/sdb1 Then I create a folder and add some test file in. I then I unmount it and remount it to /media/DATA.

Here is my info from gparted:

/dev/sda1 ntfs 27.95 GiB 6.86 GiB used 21.09 GiB unused Flags: boot

Help me understand? Is it showing me free disk space or the unused part of the ntsf file system?

I've got an external disk with 6 partitions: 4 for linux, one storage in HFS+, and one storage in ext4. I'd like to delete the ext4 storage one and move it's resulting unallocated space into my HFS+ one, but in GParted, I delete the ext4, and it becomes unallocated. But when I try to resize my HFS+, I can't enter a new value for "New size (MiB)", and the up arrow for it's size is disabled.

I have a logical volume that is 2.44 TB in size which is mounted. I use it to store movies and TV shows for sharing on the home network. However, all of a sudden the system now gives the error: No space left on device, when trying to copy more data over.
